How to demo

Open Powershell

Build AspDotNetCore

cd C:\workspaces\dotnet-steeltoe-fileshare-sample\src\AspNetCore\SMBFileShares
dotnet publish -f netcoreapp2.2 -r win10-x64

Build AspDotNet Framework

cd C:\workspaces\dotnet-steeltoe-fileshare-sample\src\AspNet4\NetworkFileShares4x

• Open the .sln file in Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition
• Right click on project, then select Publish
  • You will need to set the path to bin/Debug/net461/win10-x64/publish
