In order to compile Discord.Net you will need latest version of [Visual Studio 2017](https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#windowsvs2017) and [.Net Core SDK](https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core). The .Net Core workload must be selected during Visual Studio Installation.
## Known Issues
---
### WebSockets (Win7 and earlier)
.NET Core 1.1 does not support WebSockets on Win7 and earlier. It's recommended to use the Discord.Net.Providers.WS4Net package until this is resolved.
Track the issue [here](https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/9503).
