Sorry this addon does not have .net core support, there’s already several other issues that highlight this.

[SharpeRAD]

Feel free to provide a PR for #12 :)

[luis-fss]

Sorry for the duplication.

In fact I really did a preliminary analysis on other issues, but maybe because I do not usually work with dotnet core I did not realize that this was the problem.

Thanks for the clarification and good luck with excellent project, I'm making good use of it.

[SharpeRAD]

No worries. Hopefully one day cake will be able to add some form of dependency analysis as the standard .net exceptions are not very helpful when it comes to this.
