Is there a plan to support global tools install like Npm ?
See original GitHub issueIn NodeJs we can use npm install bower -g to install bower or other tools ,
I think dotnet should do it too .
I expect there will be a command like : dotnet tools install <toolname> -g by default the tools put in global shoud build a platform specific binary ( on windows, there will be a <app>.exe file )
and dotnet tools install <toolname> to manage the tools section in project.json.

This is actually being implemented in the CLI directly as well, as global tools. The install tool and pack tool experience just made in to the CLI available from our nightlies at the main branch.
We have now implemented our global tools feature through dotnet tool install (formerly dotnet install tool).
It has a local tool version (through --tool-path instead of --global) along with uninstall, list and update.
As such, I am going to close this issue. If there are specific feature requests around the feature we have built in 2.1.300, I would suggest filling new separate issues for those asks.
