dotnet / roslyn

Welcome to the .NET Compiler Platform ("Roslyn")

Roslyn provides open-source C# and Visual Basic compilers with rich code analysis APIs. It enables building code analysis tools with the same APIs that are used by Visual Studio.

C# and Visual Basic Language Feature Suggestions

If you want to suggest a new feature for the C# or Visual Basic languages go here:

• dotnet/csharplang for C# specific issues
• dotnet/vblang for VB-specific features
• dotnet/csharplang for features that affect both languages

Contribute!

Some of the best ways to contribute are to try things out, file bugs, and join in design conversations.
