.NET Core Console application

You can choose whether or not to use Dependency Injection when using NLog in a .NET Core Console application. If you don't want to use DI, you can just add the NLog NuGet package to your project, manually add an NLog.config file, follow this tutorial to GetCurrentClassLogger(), and use that for logging.

To use DI, you can use NLog in conjunction with Microsoft.Extensions.Logging by following the 'getting started' tutorial below.
