I have created a console app using C# and .Net core version 5 on Visual Studio IDE. I understood how you can publish this app for the same OS. So now I can share my C# project as a .exe with all my friends. But all my friends don't have a windows. Since this is a console app, it said that I could share it with anyone having Linux/Mac. Also, I only have windows. So the main question: How do I export my .cs project in such a way that I get files for Mac and Linux with just a windows machine? Also is it possible to do this without using non-Microsoft services since it poses security risks?

  • [mac](https://stackoverflow.com/q/38792042/1997232), [linux](https://stackoverflow.com/q/46843863/1997232). Not sure what "with just a windows machine" means, same as mentioned security risks (rant?). – Sinatr May 20 '21 at 09:58
  • *"share my C# project as a .exe with all my friends"* - sharing exe is publishing (or just running), but in title you ask to export project. Can you clarify? – Sinatr May 20 '21 at 10:02
  • @Sinatr I know how to "share my C# project as a .exe with all my friends" but I don't know how to share my C# project as .dmg or whatever is used for Linux. (I am not even sure if Mac uses a .dmg) – Sive May 20 '21 at 10:13
  • @Sinatr "with just a windows machine" means that I have a windows 10. I don't have a mac or a linux. – Sive May 20 '21 at 10:14
  • [This](https://stackoverflow.com/q/38640862/1997232) ? Or just [compile for linux on windows](https://stackoverflow.com/q/41533592/1997232) ? – Sinatr May 20 '21 at 10:15
  • And how do you do this for MacOs? – Sive May 20 '21 at 11:00

You might need MacOS (Cocoa) version for it. I think is not included in MAUI. Even I was wondering the same but the question answered it.
