Publish to Linux? (CentOS7)

Hi all,

I've followed the official documentation multiple times, and I still can't figure out how to actually run my ASP.NET Core project successfully. I'm a Linux dummy, so anything that might seem implicit isn't to me. 

I'm simply trying to host my REST API using nginx (web server).

Has anyone successfully published to CentOS7? Did you find any handy tutorials that helped you through the process?

Thanks in advance.
