About this tag
The global json tag brings together guidance on using the .NET SDK selection file in Windows 10 and Windows 11 development environments. Its featured content explains how global.json helps projects choose a specific SDK when multiple .NET SDK versions, such as .NET 8, .NET 9, and .NET 10, are installed side by side. It also covers installing the SDK, checking available versions, adding additional releases, and configuring projects for more predictable builds. This tag is useful for developers managing different .NET applications on Windows and looking for practical steps to control SDK version selection with global.json.
