NAME

dotnet-new-sdk-templates - .NET default templates for dotnet new

DESCRIPTION

When you install the .NET SDK (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download), you receive over a dozen built-in templates for creating projects and files, including console apps, class libraries, unit test projects, ASP.NET Core apps (including Angular (https://angular.io/) and React (https://reactjs.org/) projects), and configuration files. To list the built-in templates, run the dotnet new list command:

dotnet new list
    

The following table shows the templates that come pre-installed with the .NET SDK. The default language for the template is shown inside the brackets. Click on the short name link to see the specific template options.

Template options

Each template may have additional options available. To show the additional options available for the template use the --help option with the template name argument, for example: dotnet new console --help. In case the template supports multiple languages, this command will show help for the template in the default language. By combining it with the --language option, you can see the help for other languages: dotnet new console --help --language F#. The templates that ship with the .NET SDK have the following additional options:

console

-f|--framework <FRAMEWORK>

Specifies the framework to target. Available since .NET Core 3.0 SDK.

The following table lists the default values according to the SDK version you’re using:

SDK version Default value
7.0 net7.0
6.0 net6.0
3.1 netcoreapp3.1

The ability to create a project for an earlier TFM depends on having that version of the SDK installed. For example, if you have only the .NET 7 SDK installed, then the only value available for --framework is net7.0. If you install the .NET 6 SDK the value net6.0 becomes available for --framework. If you install the .NET Core 3.1 SDK, netcoreapp3.1 becomes available, and so on. So by specifying --framework netcoreapp3.1 you can target .NET Core 3.1 even while running dotnet new in the .NET 6 SDK.

Alternatively, to create a project that targets a framework earlier than the SDK that you’re using, you might be able to do it by installing the NuGet package for the template. Common (https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=Microsoft.DotNet.Common.ProjectTemplates), web (https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=Microsoft.DotNet.Web.ProjectTemplates), and SPA (https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=Microsoft.DotNet.Web.Spa.ProjectTemplates) project types use different packages per target framework moniker (TFM). For example, to create a console project that targets netcoreapp1.0, run dotnet new install on Microsoft.DotNet.Common.ProjectTemplates.1.x.

--langVersion <VERSION_NUMBER>

Sets the LangVersion property in the created project file. For example, use --langVersion 7.3 to use C# 7.3. Not supported for F#. Available since .NET Core 2.2 SDK.

For a list of default C# versions, see Defaults.

--no-restore

If specified, doesn’t execute an implicit restore during project creation. Available since .NET Core 2.2 SDK.

--use-program-main

If specified, an explicit Program class and Main method will be used instead of top-level statements. Available since .NET SDK 6.0.300. Default value: false. Available only for C#.

To create a project that targets a framework earlier than the SDK that you’re using, see --framework for console projects earlier in this article.

--langVersion <VERSION_NUMBER>

Sets the LangVersion property in the created project file. For example, use --langVersion 7.3 to use C# 7.3. Not supported for F#. Available since .NET Core 2.2 SDK.

For a list of default C# versions, see Defaults.

Doesn’t execute an implicit restore during project creation.
