+For example, suppose an application requests version `8.0.0`, while the locally available versions are `8.2.0`, `8.2.3`, `8.4.5`, `9.0.0`, `9.0.6`, `9.7.8`.

 ## Self-contained deployments include the selected runtime
 
 You can publish an application as a [**self-contained distribution**](../deploying/index.md#publish-self-contained). This approach bundles the .NET runtime and libraries with your application. Self-contained deployments don't have a dependency on runtime environments. Runtime version selection occurs at publishing time, not run time.
