Creating .Net Core projects [message #1851850]

This question might require familiarity with .Net Core to answer it.

I have been doing the following to create a .Net Core project and push to a new GitHub repository.

Create empty repository in GitHub
Create a project using dotnet command in a new directory
Open project from file system
Share project (create local repository)
Modify files
Commit and push

For those unfamiliar with .Net, that works, but getting the local and remote repositories connected seems a bit cumbersome. I can do it but then I tried doing the following.

Create empty repository in GitHub
Import the repository into Eclipse
Create project using dotnet command in the project's directory
Refresh Eclipse of course
Modify files
Commit and push

That is easier for me. Is there a potential problem (relevant to Eclipse) I do not realize?

One thing I am not sure of is whether to import as New Project wizard or as general project. The default is general project and I assume that since it is an empty repository, New Project wizard would do nothing I need done.

For what it is worth, I am currently using How to deploy ASP.NET Blazor WebAssembly to GitHub Pages and using Eclipse for the IDE instead of Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code.

This looks generally fine. Creating/importing any type of project will create a .project file in the folder. This is an XML file that is generally hidden in the explorer views. The view menu (next to the min/max controls in the upper right of the view) has Filters... and it's possible to uncheck the .* resources filter to show them. The .project file can includes information about natures and builders, but you likely don't need any that because you don't have a Java project nor a C++ project that need such specialized configuration.
