Installing Dotnet.Tools directory is absent

General

Hi;
I went with manual install on linux system and downloaded SDK V8. Iextracted the content, then added the root directory as DOTNET_ROOT and also added the root to my $PATH.
but according the installation page I also need tools directory. but there is no tools dir inside the extracted sdk.
What should I do?

export PATH=$PATH:$DOTNET_ROOT:$DOTNET_ROOT/tools

The tools directory is only created when you install a (global) tool. (Like “dotnet install fantomas --global”).

If you don’t have / need global tools, you don’t need to put the tools directory into the path.

Good to know.
But It was nice to put that information on the instruction page.
