I'm getting the same thing, just when I wanted to try out giraffe for the first time too. dotnet --version reports 2.1.4

Edit: Ah, found it, you need to add -lang F# due to a bug that has been fixed downstream.

Hi,

Yes this is a very annoying bug which is causing a lot of confusion unfortunately.

It has been fixed ages ago but not been released by Microsoft yet 😣.

I'll document it in the README later tonight!

Workaround is described here: https://github.com/giraffe-fsharp/giraffe-template/issues/8#issuecomment-353890940

I've added a note to the README now. Hope this helps new people coming to Giraffe!
