How do I produce an exe for a console application using dotnet build?

Steps to reproduce

Create a new .Net Core Console Application (PREVIEW). Run dotnet build from the command line.

Actual behavior

It only produces a .dll

Expected behavior

I need a .exe so I can execute it using the Process class

Environment data

dotnet --info output:

@Strandedpirate you need to create a self-contained app. For more information, please consult https://dotnet.github.io/docs/core-concepts/app-types.html. When you create a self-contained application, you will get an exe (that is, a binary) and will be able to do what need.

I will go ahead and close this issue. If you still need information, please reopen. Thanks!
