title: .NetCore for Mac - Publish to Native Mac App/Binary?
body: <p>I've been searching for quite some time now, and can't seem to find an answer to this problem. Found only two questions/answers on SO and they still don't answer this question (<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=netcore+publish+mac+app">https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=netcore+publish+mac+app</a>).</p>
  
  <p>I'm working with DotNetCore on Mac, using Visual Studio as the IDE. The app is a Console App, not an ASP.Net app, simple "Hello World" app in C#:</p>
  
  <pre><code>...
  Console.Writeline("Hello World");
  ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So here's the question... To run the app, I know I can use the "dotnet" command to run it. I'm trying to build/publish the app, as you normally would do in Windows by creating an .exe file, but now on Mac by creating a native binary file.</p>
  
  <p>I have found zero documentation on how to do this, and deploy the application as a self contained app that can run independently without having to call the program using the "dotnet" command. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places but haven't even found anything on Microsoft's documentation, they all point to documentation for building ASP.Net apps on .NetCore.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?</p>
