kibana 6.2.4

Maku sure all is good by going to http://localhost:5601 in your fav. browser. You should see something like

dotnet core 2.0+

https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/windows

Run dotnet --version, will print

Rob@DESKTOP-CFOA2QH C:\somedirectory
$ dotnet --version
2.1.100

or something very similar.

IDE

We will also need some kind of IDE installed on your machine so you can follow exercises. Here we have at least three options:

Visual Studio 2017 Community
Visual Studio Code
Notepad++ .. you know, we just need to have some kind of editor tool, build and running tests can be done in terminal/cmd

git

And git, so we can clone repository and do some exercises

Don't give up

I understand there is a lot of things to install and all this configuration .. crazy! If something is not working and you are worry .. don't give up! We will have some time before actual workshops, we will help with that.
