## Docker

Images for .NET Core 2.1.5 are available on [Docker](https://hub.docker.com/r/microsoft/dotnet/).

## Installing .NET Core on Linux

Instructions for installing using your package manager can be found on the [dotnet-core][linux-install] site.

## Installation from a binary archive

Installing from the packages detailed above is recommended or you can install from binary archive, if that better suits your needs. When using binary archives to install, the contents must be extracted to a user location such as `$HOME/dotnet`, a symbolic link created for `dotnet` and a few dependencies installed. Dependency requirements can be seen in the [Linux System Prerequisites](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/Documentation/linux-prereqs.md) document.

```bash
mkdir -p $HOME/dotnet && tar zxf dotnet.tar.gz -C $HOME/dotnet
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/dotnet
```

## .NET Core Runtime-only installation

If only the .NET Core Runtime is needed, install `dotnet-runtime-` using your package manager. If you also need ASP.NET Core functionality, installing `aspnetcore-runtime-` will install both the ASP Runtime and .NET Core Runtime.

## Windows Server Hosting

If you are looking to host stand-alone apps on Servers, the following installers can be used on Windows and Linx systems.

### Windows

You can download the Windows Server Hosting installer and run the following command from an Administrator command prompt:

* [dotnet-hosting-2.1.5-win.exe][hosting-win-x64.exe]

This will install the ASP.NET Core Module for IIS.
