Failed to find the Edge.js runtime assembly in the dependency manifest list

Hi,
I'm trying to get started with electron-edge. I could run the first hello world example using .net 4.5. But when I try to run the same example using core CLR I get following exception.

App threw an error during load
Error: Failed to find the Edge.js runtime assembly in the dependency manifest list.  Make sure that your project.json file has a reference to the Edge.js NuGet package.

My setup is as follows.
Windows 10 64bit

1. npm install electron-edge
2. used dotnet migrate and npm rebuild to build electron-edge and edge-cs
3. ran sample for .net 4.5

var helloWorld = edge.func(function () {/*
    async (input) => {
        return ".NET Welcomes " + input.ToString();
    }
*/});

  helloWorld('JavaScript', function (error, result) {
      if (error) throw error;
      console.log(result);
  });

It prints the output and worked fine.

Then I switched to core CLR
set EDGE_USE_CORECLR=1

Ran the app and got the exception above. I wasted about a day to get this to work.

Does anyone have a clue?

Could get away with setting the dotnet sdk version to older version by adding global.json file

{
  "sdk": {
    "version": "1.0.0-preview2-003121"
  }
}

I guess released dotnetcore sdks are not yet supported.
