 With the SDK, you won't need to install separate runtimes for ASP.NET Core or the Desktop environment - everything is bundled together to streamline development and deployment.
 
-**ASP.NET Core Runtime 6.0.x**
-The ASP.NET Core Runtime contains the components needed to run ASP.NET Core web applications on .NET 6. It includes libraries and features for building dynamic web pages, RESTful APIs, and real-time communication with SignalR.

 The .NET Runtime is the base runtime required to run console or server-based .NET applications. It's more lightweight than the SDK, since it does not include compilers, build tools, or additional libraries for web or desktop development.
