Microsoft’s flagship cross-platform development platform,  .NET 6, is now offered in Canonical’s Ubuntu Linux distribution. The goal is to streamline access to Microsoft’s development platform and improve Ubuntu as a platform for.NET application development, the business said.Specifically,.

WEB 6 is being bundled with Ubuntu 22.04 and Ubuntu Chiseled Containers, the latter being Linux container images that improve security by lessening services and leaving out a package manager and shell. Microsoft and Ubuntu said they will collaborate to make sure new.NET releases are available with new Ubuntu releases.
