To follow this chapter, you'll need to have either Visual Studio Code, or Visual Studio Community Edition. Both are free downloads available at the Visual Studio website, at https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/.
Check out the following video to see the code in action: http://bit.ly/2HVSHad
We'll also be using the .NET Core command-line interface (CLI). This will give us access to a series of programs we can call directly from the command prompt. To follow along, you'll need to make sure you have the .NET Core SDK installed locally, which can be downloaded from https://www.microsoft.com/net/download.
