    True. But since both .NET Framework (the old .NET) and .NET Core (the new .NET) supports the .NET Standard 2.0 then it should be relatively easy to port software from .NET Framework to .NET Core.
    Since they both support .NET Standard 2.0 they have a common API surface area.



    .NET Core is the future of .NET.

    .NET Framework was closed source and made explicitly for Windows. Later Mono re-implemented much of the API and later Microsoft open sourced parts of the .NET Framework such as ASP.NET and Entity Framework, then later they open sourced the whole .NET Framework.

    .NET Core on the other hand was conceived from the start to be cross-platform with explicit support for Windows, Linux and macOS. While .NET Framework was monolithic, .NET Core is modular and more suitable for the cloud, embedded devices and IoT.
    Is .Net Core installable on Wine?

      I don't know.
      You wouldn't need to since .NET Core is available natively for Linux so you don't need Wine for it.

      However .NET applications use Windows Forms or Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) both of which are Windows technologies, neither of which are available for Linux or macOS.

        Microsoft is nice only at the PR level.

        It will be open source when it is released using GPL/Apache or BSD Licenses.

        Until then in the words of the immortal admiral Ackbar: "IT's a trap!"
        .NET Framework 4.6 and .NET Core are licensed under the MIT License.
        The MIT license is approved by the Open Source Initiative (OSI), the Free Software Foundation (FSF) and passes the Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG).

            Can anyone inform Sarnex to change his Wine +Gallium Nine PPA to use Wine-staging instead of official Wine?

              Windows Forms (WinForms) is supported by Mono, http://www.mono-project.com/docs/gui/winforms/. Have a couple of WinForms applications written for Windows that work just fine with Linux.

              Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is not and most likely will not be supported.

                Windows Communication Framework (WCF) is supported in Mono, but devs I talk to say WCF is too tied to IIS which means it can't use Wine. Besides most people use REST if on Linux.
