 ### NativeAOT
 
-Build the Native AOT binaries by running `dotnet publish -r <RID>` where `<RID>` is the RuntimeIdentifier for your OS, for example `win-x64`. The projects will copy the binaries to the `OutputFiles\` directory. After publishing, use `regsvr32.exe` to register `Server.dll` with COM by running run `regsvr.exe .\OutputFiles\Server\Server.dll`. Then, run the client application `.\OutputFiles\Client\Client.exe` and observe the output as it activates and uses a COM instance from `Server.dll`.
