## Linux
Installing the .NET Runtime works differently depending on which Linux distribution you use. Check out the instructions for your distro:

You can check which version of **.NET Runtime** is installed by running the following command in a terminal:
```console
dotnet --info
```
If the **.NET Runtime** is correctly installed, the command will output something similar to the following:
```console
