Microsoft described .NET 5 is a merger of normal Framework with the open source .NET Core. This will create a single .NET platform, something users of the software framework have been asking for.

“There will be just one .NET going forward, and you will be able to use it to target Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, tvOS, watchOS, and WebAssembly, and more,” Microsoft’s Richard Lander announced. “We will introduce new .NET APIs, runtime capabilities and language features as part of .NET 5.”
