This will open a command prompt where you can run HelloWorld.exe and confirm that it does in fact output “Hello, World!” Once in there do a shift & right click combination and choose Open command window here from the options. Then you want to go into the bin folder, then the Debug folder. This will open the folder with the project. in the solution explorer on the right-hand side, and choose Open Folder in File Explorer. Once your build is complete, right-click the project. So to test this before we move over to Linux go ahead and build the application by clicking Build – > Build Solution in the menu at the top or Ctrl-Shift-B for keyboard fans. Now debugging this application is difficult since the console window closes as soon as the application is finished. Next you’ll want to copy and paste the Hello World Example 1 into the open file as pictured above. Then we’ll want to select the options for a new C# console application and give it a name at the bottom.

I’m using a very basic Hello World sample from here: (v=vs.71).aspxįirst open Visual Studio and navigate to File -> New -> Project Once the above prerequisites are satisfied we can begin.
