Ways to create resource in .NET 6

Yuhao Liu 21

I'm currently creating a app using opengl and want to embed some image and texture resources into it. I've read documents about ways to embed resources into assembly using resgen.exe and visual studio. But since it's .NET 6 now and I'm on Linux where there's no Visual Studio for me to use, is there a way to use the dotnet cli or .csproj to do such thing?

Is there a way to specify it inside .csproj file so that MSBuild could automatically compile it, instead of invoking the command line by hand?
