From f7eb03f6d39369a9c035f4abcbe7e53b5a8e45be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Woodward Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2017 15:11:48 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Remove Visual Studio as a prerequisite (#4223) With .NET Core cross-platform and IDE agnostic listing Visual Studio 2017 as a prerequisite is confusing, especially when the only reason Visual Studio is listed is because you're editing a .csproj file. As a .NET developer using a Macbook with VS Code, Visual Studio for Mac and/or JetBrains' Rider, this prerequisite implies that I'm unable to upgrade to .NET Core 2.0 because I don't have Visual Studio 2017. --- aspnetcore/migration/proper-to-2x/index.md | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/aspnetcore/migration/proper-to-2x/index.md b/aspnetcore/migration/proper-to-2x/index.md index df9e7f16a480..201a8f2a2eb8 100644 --- a/aspnetcore/migration/proper-to-2x/index.md +++ b/aspnetcore/migration/proper-to-2x/index.md @@ -22,7 +22,6 @@ This article serves as a reference guide for migrating ASP.NET applications to A ## Prerequisites * [.NET Core 2.0.0 SDK](https://dot.net/core) or later. -* [Visual Studio 2017](https://docs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/install/install-visual-studio) version 15.3 or later with the **ASP.NET and web development** workload. ## Target Frameworks ASP.NET Core 2.0 projects offer developers the flexibility of targeting .NET Core, .NET Framework, or both.
