How to install .Net Core

WARNING: This will only work on your own computer.  This will not work on the school computers because your'e not allowed to install software on the school computers.

IN ORDER TO GET THE EXTRA CREDIT YOU NEED TO INCLUDE A SCREENSHOT OF THE INSTALLER, SHOWING THE CHECKED-OFF OPTION TO INSTALL '.NET CORE CROSS PLATFORM DEVELOPMENT'
(If you forgot to get this screenshot when you installed it that's fine - you can re-run the installer and it will show the option and the check.  In other words, re-run the installer and you can grab a screenshow showing that it's been installed).

1. First, run the installer for Visual Studio (you may need to download this again, or it may already be installed).
   On Windows you should see the following.
   Click on the button that says 'Modify'
   (I assume that the installer for VS on Mac will look similar, but I don't have any screenshots of the Mac one)
   (If you're on a Mac and could grab screenshots for me I would greatly appreciate it!  Please mail them to MPanitz@cascadia.edu
   
   
   
   
2. Once you've done that you should see a list of 'Workloads' that you either have installed or could install.
   A 'Workload' is a collection of software packages that you need to do a certain kind of work. 
   For me, the screen initially looks like this, with the '.Net desktop development' option checked off in Visual Studio for Windows:
   
   
   
   
3. Next you will want to scroll the left panel down to the very bottom, where '' is found.  Do this using the scroll bar near the number '1' in the image below.
   Check it off the option for .Net Core cross-plateform development, as pictured below (near the number '2').
   Once you've done that click 'Modify'. 
   I *believe* that everything after this step is either done for you (if not then you can just go with whatever default values it suggests).
