Questions tagged [runtime-identifier]

Runtime Identifier (RID) values are used to identify target platforms where an application will run. They're used by .NET packages to represent platform-specific assets in NuGet packages.

From the .NET Core Runtime Identifier (RID) Catalog:

Runtime Identifier (RID) values are used to identify target platforms where an application will run. They're used by .NET packages to represent platform-specific assets in NuGet packages. The following values are examples of RIDs: linux-x64, ubuntu.14.04-x64, win7-x64, or osx.10.12-x64.

RIDs that represent concrete operating systems usually follow this pattern: [os].[version]-[architecture]-[additional qualifiers].
