    This repo is the official home of .NET on GitHub. It's a great starting point to find many .NET OSS projects from Microsoft and the community, including many that are part of the .NET Foundation.

  • When I have read someting like this https://github.com/microsoft/dotnet/blob/master/docs/ecosystem-issues.md for me first and easiest/ fundamental solution to grow Net ecosystem is to copy best tools/practice from rust/go (fast growing OSS community/libraries ecosystem).

  • docs.rs

    crates.io documentation generator

  • For me it's very handy feature to easy contribiutions/creating libraries/ learning. And pair it with something like docs.rs or pkg.go.dev/ (centralized documentation host for libraries) creating useful things/ easy finding new dependencies.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • mddox

    Markdown documentation generator tool

  • C# has a standard way to format documentation comments. There is a compiler option to retrieve such comments as XML files. With reflection and some XML you can easily generate markdown and then process markdown with whole bunch of tools. Here is one simple markdown generator: https://github.com/loxsmoke/mddox
