-.NET Core is a free and open-source managed software framework. It consists of
-CoreCLR, a complete runtime implementation of CLR, the virtual machine that
-manages the execution of .NET programs. CoreCLR comes with an improved
-just-in-time compiler, called RyuJIT. .NET Core also includes CoreFX, which is
-a partial fork of FCL. While .NET Core shares a subset of .NET Framework APIs,
-it comes with its own API that is not part of .NET Framework. Further,
-.NET Core contains CoreRT, the .NET Native runtime optimized to be integrated
-into AOT compiled native binaries. A variant of the .NET Core library is used
-for UWP. .NET Core's command-line interface offers an execution entry point
-for operating systems and provides developer services like compilation and
-package management.

-.NET Core supports four cross-platform scenarios: ASP.NET Core web apps,
-command-line apps, libraries, and Universal Windows Platform apps. It does not
-implement Windows Forms or WPF which render the standard GUI for desktop
-software on Windows. .NET Core is also modular, meaning that instead of
-assemblies, developers work with NuGet packages. Unlike .NET Framework, which
-is serviced using Windows Update, .NET Core relies on its package manager to
-receive updates.
