This is a bit complex, but for what most people think of as WCF (enterprise SOAP APIs) then it is not supported on .NET Core. The W stands for Windows after all

This is a bit complex, but for what most people think of as WCF (enterprise SOAP APIs) then it is not supported on .NET Core. The W stands for Windows after all.
However, the ASP.NET Core MVC framework supports Web API and this was originally part of the WCF REST services. Of course, you can still interact with SOAP endpoints (served by various frameworks) as a client, as pointed out elsewhere here.
- vadimberman 9y agoFor me, WCF is the ability to run web services that can be configured on the fly for different protocols, security requirements, etc. It's sad that it won't be available. Honestly, it puts a bit of damper on my development plans.
