✅ Compile visual studio project on linux?
I've developed a .net 7 console app in Visual Studio, and I'd like to deploy it on a VPS that runs linux so I don't have to run it locally (I don't keep my computer running at night).
I can just build it for linux and transfer that over, but I'm curious if there's a not too complicated way to build the project natively on linux. That way I can clone the repo and pull and recompile whenever I update the app, instead of always having to transfer a finished build over. Is there an easy way to do this?

yeah just build with the cli
dotnet publish -c ReleaseNo such thing as a "visual studio project" btw
It's a .NET project. You can write it with Nano, Notepad, or whatever else
Oh, right! I thought maybe the solution file had some important information for the building. Thanks, I'll give it a shot!
you can either build a project or an entire solution with the dotnet cli:
