Dont know if this is the best place to ask, but is related to dotnet cli discovery.
I think if it's confusing for me (i use and show that website a lot, and know exactly what i need), i think is really hard for new users.
Where i do download .net core preview4 sdk installer.zip (without VS 2017) ?
In the website is written to go in this repo for daily drop, and is ok but that's preview5, not latest stable preview4 released.
I understand switch, but is not possible to have a webpage with released package versions, and links?
A link to preview4 sdk isntaller/zip for all OS (like LTS/Current switch).
A link to preview2, preview2.1 and VS 2017 tools.
+1 would be nice to have a simple dist channel as well like https://nodejs.org/dist/ (easy to predict and script the URLs, enables others to write their own Version Managers like dnvm, nvm etc.)
@enricosada working on it. It will be placed next to this doc: https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/release-notes/preview3-download.md and linked from the README.md in this repo.
Meanwhile is possible to run obtain dotnet-install script passing -channel rel-1.0.0-preview4 and see the url
Or can hand-craft the URL as described in dotnet/cli#5045
@enricosada here are the release notes: https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/release-notes/preview4-download.md. The README.md is in PR.
OK, this is now fixed I believe so closing.
thx a lot @blackdwarf , that was perfect!
