Running ASP.NET Core MVC as a console application without the .NET Core SDK

Question

Main problem

I am creating a tool that generates MVC solutions (*. Sln) and builds (using msbuild) so that they can be deployed. The tool requires the .NET Framework 4.5.2.

Now I want to create an ASP.NET Core MVC application. Such applications can be run under 4.5.X, but I am not sure that msbuild can handle project.json (so I use package.config), and I can not install .NET Core, since each tutorial indicates that this is a prerequisite for ASP.NET core development. I am currently planning to deploy the generated applications on Windows.

Problem:

So, instead of the .NET Core project, I created a simple console application: There I installed all the necessary packages, for example:

  <package id="Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc" version="1.0.1" targetFramework="net452" />

SelfHosted Kestrel:

    public class Program {
    static void Main() {
        var host = new WebHostBuilder()
            .UseKestrel()
            .UseIISIntegration()
            .UseStartup<Startup>()
            .Build();

        host.Run();
    }
}

                                     var previous = options.CompilationCallback;
                                     options.CompilationCallback = context => {
                                                                       previous?.Invoke(context);
                                                                       var refs = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies()
                                                                                           .Where(x => !x.IsDynamic)
                                                                                           .Select(x => MetadataReference.CreateFromFile(x.Location))

                                                                   };

• MVC-:

    [Route("api/[controller]")]
    public class ValuesController : Controller {
  
      // GET api/values
      [HttpGet]
      public IEnumerable<string> Get() {
        return new string[] { "value1", "value2" };
      }
