The tutorials are using CNCF Jaeger (https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger) as the tracing backend, see here how to install it in a Docker image.
For running the code, you will need the .NET Core SDK. The code can be written with any text editor and run from the command line.
For easier development, use the free IDE Visual Studio Code available for Windows, Linux and macOS. For full language support including smart code completion and debugging, get the C# extension for Visual Studio Code. Alternatively, if you already have Visual Studio 2017 or higher, .NET Core SDK is already included.
This repository uses NuGet to manage dependencies. All dependencies are already included in the example projects.
All subsequent commands in the tutorials should be executed in the corresponding project directory.
