.NET 5 Project Template?

Viewed 2126

I updated Visual Studio using the VS Installer, I have the modules .NET 5 runtime and .NET SDK, my NET Core projects can be targeted towards .NET 5 but I don't have a .NET 5 template project in the VS project selection window. Is this intended or am I missing something?

According to Microsoft:

New application development can specify the net5.0 target framework moniker (TFM) for all project types, including class libraries. Sharing code between .NET 5 workloads is simplified in that all you need is the net5.0 TFM.

I have been catching up with all the preview releases of Visual Studio 2019. Its version currently is 16.9 Preview 1, and I still cannot find the .NET 5 Project Template or even change the target framework to .NET 5 in the project properties. It might be fully compatible in the official release, perhaps.
