If you're brand new to C#, or programming in general, this library may prove difficult for you to use.
Fortunately, there are resources that can help you get started with the language! An excellent tutorial series to go through would be [C# Fundamentals for Absolute Beginners](https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/CSharp-Fundamentals-for-Absolute-Beginners) by Bob Tabor. His videos go through all the basics, from setting up your development environment up to some of the more advanced concepts. If you're not sure what to do first, Bob's tutorial series should be your starting point! ## Supported .NET Implementations DisCatSharp targets .NET Standard 2.0 means that there are many implementations that *may* function with DisCatSharp. However, the following versions we will *explicitly* provide support for. Implementation|Support|Notes :---: |:---:|:--- -[.NET Core](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET_Core)|✔️|LTS versions 2.1 & 3.1 and the current 5.0 are supported. +[.NET Core](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET_Core)|✔️|LTS versions 2.1 & 3.1 & 5.0 and the current 6.0 are supported. [.NET Framework](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET_Framework)|⚠️|Versions 4.6.1 through 4.8 *should* work fine.
But we recommend that you use the latest LTS version of .NET Core. [Mono](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mono_(software))|❌️|If you need a cross platform runtime, use .NET Core. [Unity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_(game_engine))|❌️|Consider using the official [Discord GameSDK](https://discord.com/developers/docs/game-sdk/sdk-starter-guide) instead. If you use an unsupported implementation and encounter issues, you may ask for support but mostly you're on your own. ## Getting Started If you're writing a Discord bot for the first time, you'll want to start with *[creating a bot account](xref:basics_bot_account)*.
Otherwise, if you have a bot account already, start off with the *[writing your first bot](xref:basics_first_bot)* article.
Once you're up and running, feel free to browse through the [API Documentation](/api/index.html)! ## Support and Questions You can get in contact with us on Discord through the following guild: **DisCatSharp Guild**:
