CLI Build Instructions

The following instructions will cover building and running the RBX on Windows, Linux, and Mac. The most important step is to install .net core 6.

For Linux you can find install instructions here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/linux. This document will cover how to install for Ubuntu.

In the last step for dotnet ReserveBlockCore(.dll or .exe or blank) if that does not work you can also try dotnet run ReserveBlockCore(.dll or .exe or blank)

5. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y aspnetcore-runtime-6.0
