What are the Target Framework Monikers (TFMs)

The Target Framework Monikers are IDs of the type framework+version that you can target from your apps in .NET Core and ASP.NET Core.

As examples (there are more), you can use:

– “netcoreapp1.0” For .NET Core 1.0

– “net45”, “net451”, “net452”, “net46”, “net461” for .NET Framework versions

– “portable-net45+win8” for PCL profiles

– “dotnet5.6”, “dnxcore50” and others, for older .NET Core preview versions (Before .NET Core 1.0 RTM and .NET Core RC2 were released)

– “netstandard1.2”, “netstandard1.5”, etc. for .NET Standard Platform monikers.
