The dotnet plugin is used to build .NET Core runtime parts.

The plugin uses the .NET SDK to install dependencies via the NuGet package manager, and follows the standard semantics for a .NET Core project.

Plugin-specific features and syntax are dependent on which base is being used, as outlined below:

The GitHub link does not work anymore. I got the following error message:

Unrecognized qualifier. Looking for a filename? Try using the path qualifier
filename:snapcraft.yaml "plugin: dotnet"
Suggestion: path:**/snapcraft.yaml “plugin: dotnet”

Using the suggestion seems to show the intended result.
