# .NET API Component

The .NET API component of the Eduction SDK is available on Microsoft Windows and Linux platforms. It includes:

- The Eduction .NET library (`EductionDotNet.dll`) and the Eduction C SDK library (`edk.dll` on Windows, or `libedk.so` on Linux).
- Several .NET code samples that you can compile and execute by using the Eduction SDK.

The .NET Eduction SDK package includes versions of the `EductionDotNet.dll` that target .NET Standard 1.1 (netstandard 1.1) and .NET Standard 2.0 (netstandard 2.0).

DEPRECATED: Eduction SDK support for .NET Standard 1.1 has been deprecated and might be removed in future. Micro Focus recommends using a .NET implementation that supports .NET Standard 2.0.

For a list of compatible .NET implementations, refer to the Microsoft documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/net-standard.

You must specify the `EductionDotNet.dll`, and `edk.dll` or `libedk.so` libraries in the `PATH` environment variable.
