Chapter 1 - Setting .NET 5 as the target #110

Hi,

Page 19 - Chapter 1. It says to select .NET 5.0 as the target. However the only option is .NET 6.0 LTS.

That makes it difficult to follow the rest of the chapter (except for in theory).

Pointers welcome of how to get that option in there.

(VS 2022 Win 11)

Thanks Simon

Hi Simon,

Thank you for raising this issue. I have added to the errata several updates about it. The most relevant for you is here:

https://github.com/markjprice/cs10dotnet6/blob/main/docs/errata/errata.md#page-18-19---writing-code-using-visual-studio-2022

I hope this helps.

In the next 8th edition coming in November 2023, I will try to write instructions that take into account that someone could be reading the book up to the end-of-life for .NET 8 in November 2026!
