Using "ASP.NET Core shared framework" - additional links and clarification sought

[surfmuggle]

Description

The documentation on Use the ASP.NET Core shared framework has this statement

assemblies are included in the Microsoft.AspNetCore.App shared framework, which is installed with the .NET Core SDK and runtime installers.

On nuget.org the package Microsoft.AspNetCore.App is marked as deprecated as it is legacy and is no longer maintained.

It is not clear to me

• whether Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.Ref or Microsoft.AspNetCore.App.Runtime.win-x64 is the successor of the ASP.NET Core shared framework:

• or if there is still a separate download package for AspNetCore or if it is only available as part of the .NET SDK, for example for SDK 9.0.100.
