Answer 1

From documentation :

Define the platforms that your app will target.

Create a <RuntimeIdentifiers> tag in the <PropertyGroup> section of your csproj file that defines the platforms your app targets and specify the runtime identifier (RID) for each platform that you target. Note that you also need to add a semicolon to separate the RIDs. See Runtime IDentifier catalog for a list of runtime identifiers.

For example, the following <PropertyGroup> section indicates that the app runs on 64-bit Windows 10 operating systems and the 64-bit OS X Version 10.11 operating system.

 <PropertyGroup> <RuntimeIdentifiers>win10-x64;osx.10.11-x64</RuntimeIdentifiers> </PropertyGroup>
