✅ How to get build date of a asp.net app?

i want to display the YYYYMMDD in a blazor wasm app, how can i get the build date to display? i have tried this 
    <PropertyGroup>
        <PreBuildEvent>date +"%Y %m %d" > "$(ProjectDir)wwwroot\BuildDate.txt"</PreBuildEvent>
    </PropertyGroup>
    <PropertyGroup>
        <PreBuildEvent>date +"%Y %m %d" > "$(ProjectDir)wwwroot\BuildDate.txt"</PreBuildEvent>
    </PropertyGroup>
but that creates a file "\wwwroot\BuildDate.txt", not a file IN wwwroot... ????

found my solution 
    <PropertyGroup>
        <PreBuildEvent>date +"%Y %m %d" > $(pwd)/Client/wwwroot/BuildDate.txt</PreBuildEvent>
    </PropertyGroup>
    <PropertyGroup>
        <PreBuildEvent>date +"%Y %m %d" > $(pwd)/Client/wwwroot/BuildDate.txt</PreBuildEvent>
    </PropertyGroup>
