Description

**Issue description**

In class libraries, you can use `` and then use ASP specific APIs in the library. However, the documentation about this feature is very small. I cannot find any information about which packages are actually included in the framework. For example, with the `FrameworkReference`, you can use some of the `Microsoft.Extensions.*` packages, but not all of them.

Is there some kind of list so that users of the `FrameworkReference` can actually know, what they can use and what not?

**Target framework**

- [X] .NET Core
- [ ] .NET Framework
- [ ] .NET Standard
