Frankly, I don't remember. It's been a long time and using .net was a failed experiment.
>Why were you targeting mono then?
Well here's another issue with .net I ran into... really unclear guidance from numerous sources who all really wanted you to use THEIR stack and thus end up paying THEM.
I did multiple things, multiple attempts to make it work. I tried to do it "the right way" from various sources.
The reason I was targeting mono at some point was because I wanted to run a microservice, without paying windows server licenses fees, and as best I can tell, that was the root runtime I'd need to target.
Keep in mind that this was me, going in blind into a large and established ecosystem. I don't think going astray detracts from some of my bigger complaints, such as the poor quality of community open source libraries.
