Unable to make sure I have the latest version of .NET Core installed
I installed .NET Core on my Mac following this tutorial: https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#macos
The manual says I am installing .NET Core 1.1. All the latest documentation I go through says .NET Core 1.1 is the latest, project.json is dead and so .xproj. No problem, I don't care that I still have to read the xml with .csproj, we don't live in a perfect world.
But the installation says I'm installing .NET Core 1.0.3, not 1.1:
So I'm confused, it looks like .NET Core 1.0.3 to me, not 1.1. Perhaps on Windows the latest .NET Core 1.1?

Don't confuse the .NET Core version with the .NET Core SDK version. SDK 1.0.3
To check your .NET version run cmd command:
dotnet
See the description of this version :
When you are at the dotnet command line (aka CLI aka Command Line Interface) and type "dotnet", you will be shown the runtime version.
When you add a version parameter ('dotnet -version) that will return the version of the SDK (aka CLI aka Command Line Interface) that you are working with.
