The [.NET Core Libraries][corefx] repo contains the base class libraries, which provides data types and base functionality (ex: String, Collections, HttpClient) on top of CoreCLR. The two repos together make up .NET Core.

+## Learn about CoreCLR
+Historically, new devs to the CLR team would be encouraged to read the "Book of the Runtime" (BotR) before making substative changes to the product. We have released the meaningful BotR chapters, for the same goal with new contributors.
