Is it possible to run .NET Core on Raspberry PI?

Question

I\'ve heard that .NET Core could run on Linux and Mac as well. I am currently using Mono on Raspberry PI. Is it possible or will it be possible to run .NET Core on Raspberry

Answer 1

Microsoft have made the source to .NET Core available. For an actual Linux or other non Windows implementation you will most likely still use Mono or one of the Xamarin products. As they contain broader support than just the Core functionality. Xamarin are taking the .NET core source and using it to fix holes and bugs in their .NET implementation. Microsoft are making also Visual Studio Mono/Xamarin friendly and it will come with Xamarin's trial/base product for mobile development in a yet to be released version of VS.

Edit -> Additionally it sounds like Microsoft are doing a free version of Windows 10 for the board. which will also run .Net.
