   Compiles application assemblies as ReadyToRun (R2R) format. R2R is a form of ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation. For more information, see [ReadyToRun images](../whats-new/dotnet-core-3-0.md#readytorun-images). Available since .NET Core 3.0 SDK.
 
   We recommend that you specify this option in a publish profile rather than on the command line. For more information, see [MSBuild](#msbuild).

   Packages the app into a platform-specific single-file executable. The executable is self-extracting and contains all dependencies (including native) that are required to run the app. When the app is first run, the application is extracted to a directory based on the app name and build identifier. Startup is faster when the application is run again. The application doesn't need to extract itself a second time unless a new version is used. Available since .NET Core 3.0 SDK.
