k build console application

[Mpdreamz]

When trying to use k build to build a console application the resulting nuget package does not contain an .exe.

The current project.json schema has no way off specifying that my application is in fact a console application it seems.

This platform doesn't support .exe's. A console application is really just a class library with a different entry point so you'll never be able to produce an exe. If you're looking for a way to get something more deployable, then you can use k pack instead of k build. This will turn your console application into something you can start with a batch file.
