Release build in VS Code

Release build in VS Code

In VS Code, you can build your C# project in release mode by opening the integrated terminal and running the following command in the project's root directory:

dotnet build -c Release

This command will build the project in release mode, which will optimize the compiled code for performance and create a smaller output binary.

Alternatively, you can build the project in release mode using the VS Code C# extension. To do this, open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P on Mac), type "C#", and select "Configure Default Build Task". Choose "dotnet build" as the task and select "Release" as the configuration.

After configuring the default build task, you can simply press Ctrl+Shift+B or Cmd+Shift+B on Mac to build the project in release mode.
