ASP.NET vNext Step by Step setup on Mac and console app

I have put together a sequence of continuous steps for running vNext on your Mac

Open Terminal
Install Ruby
Install Homebrew by running:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

```
brew install wget
```

Run the brew command to tap the ASP.NET vNext related git repositories

```
brew tap aspnet/k
```
To delete the previous tap commands

```
brew untap aspnet/k
```

Run install for KVM to install the latest KRE package

```
brew install kvm
```

Run the following if kvm is not recognized by terminal

```
source kvm.sh
```

Switch directories. Replace {username} with your username.

```
cd /users/{username}/Documents
```

Make a new directory

```
mkdir C#
```
```
cd C#
```

Use vi to create a new file called Program.cs

```
vi Program.cs
```
```
:i
```

using System;

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
    Console.WriteLine("Hello World"); 
    }
}

```
press ESC
```
```
:w
```
```
press ESC
```
```
:q!
```

Use vi to create a new file called project.json

```
vi project.json
```
```
:i
```

{
    "dependencies": {

    },
    "frameworks": {
        "aspnet50": {},
        "aspnetcore50": {
            "dependencies": {
                "System.Console": “4.0.0-beta-*”
            }
        }
    }
}

```
press ESC
```
```

```

Run the kpm restore command.
