To make the _driver variable a public variable accessible throughout the class, you can declare it outside the Main method and mark it as public.

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome;

public class Program
{
    public static IWebDriver _driver = new ChromeDriver();

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        _driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://www.google.com");
        _driver.FindElement(By.Name("q")).SendKeys("Learn Automation");
    }
}
