As sibling comment pointed out, it's just .fsproj manifest and Program.fs file. What boilerplate do you speak of? It's on the opposite end boilerplate-wise to projects made in e.g. Java or TypeScript. For F#, projects are needed to make full applications or libraries. Otherwise, you can simply write F# scripts with .fsx and execute them via 'dotnet fsi {SomeScript.fsx}'. (obviously you can also specify dotnet fsi as shebang and integrate these scripts into general scripting on Unix systems - it's very productive) | |||||||||||||||||

I suspect they were either referring to pre-.NET Core days before the new project formats came out or they're creating projects in Visual Studio and checking all the optional boxes. There indeed did used to be a lot more required boilerplate to get some code running. Now you can run a .NET project quite nicely in VS Code with 2 total files. | |||||||||||||||||
