   dotnet pack

2. The package will be in the src/tool/nupkg/ folder.

3. Open any of the three devcontainer images in a GitHub Codespace.

4. Validate your version of .NET

   dotnet --list-sdks
   
   dotnet --version

5. Upload the package to your codespace in any folder.

6. Install the local package:
