The commenter you’re responding to is specifically referring to “.NET Core” which has nothing to do with IIS or “.NET framework”, the latter are components of The older Windows Server stack whereas the former is a genuinely cross-platform development stack. Unfortunately, the commenters who actually read the docs and understand the tech are being buried in preference of people who are either deliberately trying to ignore the official documentation (literally just ‘dotnet publish’ and run the exe ‘./myApp’), or are just that green in using a compiled language that isn’t handled by a nice GUI tool in their cloud vendor of choice.
