Resources to learn the F# ecosystem

• Expecto

  2 668 7.3 F#

  A smooth testing lib for F#. APIs made for humans! Strong testing methodologies for everyone!

  Unit testing: I personally use FsUnit, specifically FsUnit.Xunit. There's some other libraries like Expecto and Hedgehog (property testing), but I haven't found a reason to use them. I recently started experimenting a little with Hedgehog. FsUnit integrates well into Visual Studio, since it sits nicely on top of NUnit and xUnit, and it's done everything I've needed so far.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com featured

  Purpose built for real-time analytics at any scale. InfluxDB Platform is powered by columnar analytics, optimized for cost-efficient storage, and built with open data standards.

  

• fsharp-hedgehog

  6 271 6.7 F#

  Release with confidence, state-of-the-art property testing for .NET.

• MSBuild

  19 5,208 9.8 C#

  The Microsoft Build Engine (MSBuild) is the build platform for .NET and Visual Studio.

  

  The main thing they do is to list projects so that you can open a solution and see a set of projects, or build a solution and build everything there. They also give a lot of customization and fortunately it's rare that you need to know anything about that. It does feel somewhat unnecessary since you should be able to open a project with its dependencies. Hopefully solution files are going to be cleaned up: https://github.com/dotnet/msbuild/issues/1730
