Description
In .NET 5 there is a new feature of single file applications.
This has been needed for over 20 years. I believe this should be the default behavior going forward, not an option. By making this the default there are many benefits to the developer.
1. Smaller app footprint.
2. Easier publishing of the app.
3. App has all its dependencies within its footprint.
4. No additional bloat added to the app when it is not needed.
