What is Dotnet CLI?
The .NET SDK is the core development kit that provides the shared functionality between Visual Studio and the .NET CLI for creating, building, and managing .NET projects. It contains essential MSBuild tasks, project templates, and build infrastructure that enable consistent development workflows across different tools. The SDK ensures that projects behave identically whether developed in an IDE or through command-line interfaces.
.NET developers who need to create and build projects using either Visual Studio or the .NET CLI, and contributors who want to understand or extend the underlying SDK infrastructure.
Developers choose the .NET SDK because it provides a unified, reliable foundation for .NET development that guarantees consistency between IDE and CLI workflows. Its open-source nature allows for community contributions and transparency into the core build system that powers the .NET ecosystem.
