.NET Core vs ASP.NET Core

Question

What exactly is the difference between .NET Core and ASP.NET Core?

Are they mutually exclusive? I heard ASP.NET Core is built on .NET Core, but it can also be built

Answer 1

The .NET Framework is on its last release. There will not be another one after 4.8. Microsoft will continue with .NET Core. From this time you should prefer .NET Core on your projects.
