.NET Development Container Templates

This repository contains Docker-based development environments for different .NET versions. Currently we have included .NET 8.0 in the sub-folder NET-Core-8, with support for additional .NET versions planned for future releases.

🎯 What's Included

Each .NET version template typically contains:

• .NET SDK with all runtimes (console, web, desktop)
• Project templates: Console, Web API, MVC, Blazor, gRPC, Tests, and more
• Cross-platform development (Windows ↔ Linux containers)
• Instant project creation with pre-configured scripts
• Development tools and utilities for streamlined workflows
