SignalR cannot be used with .Net Core

Question

I am trying to install SignalR using NuGet package manager in my C# Asp.Net core project, but I get this error that SignalR is not compatible with .net core, is it really not supporter yet? or can I do something to get it work? (I am using VS2017 if it was important to mention that). The error:

UPDATE:

SignalR for ASP.Net Core is at the moment (01.01.2018) available in NuGet as alpha version.

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.AspNetCore.SignalR/

UDPATE 01.06.2018:

SignalR is now available for ASP.Net Core 2.1

I'm currently working on a .net core / angular 4 project using signalr.

There are a handful of seed examples on google, but one thing which may trip most people up trying to download signalr via nuget is the fact that it's a different package repo - you need to update Nuget.config in your solution to reference the more bleeding edge repo:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <add key="AspNetCore" value="https://dotnet.myget.org/F/aspnetcore-ci-dev/api/v3/index.json" />
    <add key="NuGet" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" />
  </packageSources>
</configuration>
