DOTNET Weekly 2024: EPISODE 08, upgrade .NET Framework projects to .NET SDK using .NET CLI

Hi friends! This is a weekly video of .NET related stories and code discussions/presentations/demos, with a balanced dose of desktop, web, and mobile development targets. Also contains some optimization techniques, best practices, and about 10% subjective opinions on how .NET should be :)

In this episode, I discuss the project system further, focusing on migrating .NET Framework project to .NET Core SDK style project system using .NET upgrade assistant. There are 2 ways to use .NET Upgrade assistant: from Visual Studio extension and from command line as part of dotnet tool extension (in CLI). Last week we were discussing on trying .NET Upgrade Assistant extension inside Visual Studio as Visual Studio 2022 extension, now we discuss .NET Upgrade Assistant using CLI via dotnet tool command!

And as promised, some of the inclusions of some nuget package is going to be tested as well!
