Add ability to target .NET Core
.NET Core is gaining adoption, and I find myself needing to experiment on .NET Core more and more, especially since .NET Core has it's own surface area. It be great to be able to do this in LINQPad.
I don't need LINQPad to run Mac/Linux, just the Windows version to be able to target .NET Core.
A public beta is now available: https://www.linqpad.net/LINQPad6.aspx

I am wondering if this will also include allowing me to use EF Core without making changes to my DbContext to provide a parameter-less or single string ctor? For example, I would expect LinqPad to be able to new up my Startup.cs and get my context from the service collection. This way all my connection strings in apsettings.{environment}.json work as expected with no additional config from me,

Thumb up. .Net Core support would be really a very nice feature, I also stopped using LINQpad because it is not compatible with my new .Net Core Projects.

This is must have since it seems that Microsoft is kind of ditching .NET Framework.

I do actually have a license, but without net core support I don't think I am going to renew since all code I do these days is in .net core

This is the only thing keeping me from buying the developer edition for myself.
