Shiney new MVC project. Looks great, does what it says on the tin...
Until I deployed it to the webserver and it doesn't look right. Not right at all.
Checking everything... is the css deployed properly? The javascript? The pages? The Assemblies?
Then I started playing around with the web config since it was the only file that appeared to be different from debug to release and, sure enough, if I commented out the compilation entry, everything worked fine. WTF???
Some hours later and getting nowhere, I left it alone and put it back to how it was.
Next day I start again. Had a flash, check the deployed page source, maybe something missing or wrong???
Cut a long story sideways there was a missing curly brace in the bootstrap.min.cs file that was present in bootstrap.cs. How did that happen? I have no idea (of course it was my fault!).
Lesson: not everything that looks like a culprit, is one.
Happy days.

Yup - that's the one! The very last curly brace was gone!
Of course, I only seek answers here, I would never use another web site...

Yeah man, it's always the simple stuff that gets us. As engineers we love to think, much to our determent. So when a problem arises we tend to think of the more complicated solutions first, and it's always those damned semicolons that get us because we overlook them.

I just built a HelloWorld console app in Visual Studio 2017.
Interesting. I guess I should've known, but didn't expect it.
The output is a DLL (.NET Assembly).
The target assembly runs inside the .NET Core app named dotnet.exe.
Who'da thunk it?
I guess this makes sense? 
This is interesting.

EDIT
Yep, here's how you would manually start your console app now:
"c:\program files\dotnet\dotnet" helloworld.dll
Well, I'm starting all over with .NET again, after 17 years.

I think the idea of .net core is to be run on any system, any device. so this would make sense.
I may be incorrect with my very high level understanding of .net core.

Yes, totally agree. And I know I should've expected it. Just so odd.
Plus, that was kind of the (supposedly according to the original .NET story) what was going to happen with .NET and the CLR too, but it never materialized.
Or, it did, just 18 years later.

It basically is that way, except that the startup (i.e. dotnet.exe) is baked-in to the resultant exe. Which made it platform specific. Given M$ history and desire to dominate, that made sense then. Need different domination tactic now... hence dotnet.exe on windows, some other startup on linux.

A fantastic axiom to add to the list!!

It would at least mean it is not a traditional 'console app'.

Every sense, if you think about it... .NET Core had the goal to be platform independent, but truly there is not such a thing as at some point you hit the OS and problems are there...
So they moved the dependency from your code to the loader (dotnet.exe) and left you with a pure DLL. That way they got to the level where code not only can be compiled in any platform, but the result can be run on any...
If it is OK with you:
.NET Core: compile once, run everywhere[^]
ASP.NET Core: compile once, host everywhere[^]
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
