There is also the dotnet-install scripts https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-i...

In my experience installing the .NET SDK is fairly simple in any platform, well documented and supported.

Nuget.config allows to configure your local feeds, this implies you have a local feed with the required packages.

Another option is to push the local build packages to you local NuGet cache.

Just install the .NET SDK, and you’re ready to go.

> Nuget is complete and utter garbage. You still have to resort to all forms of unreliable hacks in order to redirect it to a locally clone

How so, you can use a nuget.config in your project and use your local packages fairly easy, seems in part with npm and the likes.

> Can I map multiple custom types to the same C# type? :)

Yes that is totally fine. In C# side both would be represented as "long[]", the generated code would use the appropriated encoding for the custom type, as provided by the user methods.
