MSBuild
The Microsoft Build Engine (MSBuild) build platform for .NET and VS
The Microsoft Build Engine is a platform for building applications. This engine, which is also known as MSBuild, provides an XML schema for a project file that controls how the build platform processes and builds software. Visual Studio uses MSBuild, but MSBuild doesn't depend on Visual Studio. By invoking msbuild.exe on your project or solution file, you can orchestrate and build products in environments where Visual Studio isn't installed. Visual Studio uses MSBuild to load and build managed projects. The project files in Visual Studio (.csproj, .vbproj, .vcxproj, and others) contain MSBuild XML code that executes when you build a project by using the IDE. Visual Studio projects import all the necessary settings and build processes to do typical development work, but you can extend or modify them from within Visual Studio or by using an XML editor. Starting with Visual Studio 2022, when you build in Visual Studio, the 64-bit version of MSBuild is used. -

Windows Presentation Foundation
Framework for building Windows desktop applications
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a UI framework for building Windows desktop applications. WPF supports a broad set of application development features, including an application model, resources, controls, graphics, layout, data binding and documents. WPF uses the Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) to provide a declarative model for application programming. WPF applications are based on a vector graphics architecture. This enables applications to look great on high DPI monitors, as they can be infinitely scaled. WPF also includes a flexible hosting model, which makes it straightforward to host a video in a button, for example. The visual designer provided in Visual Studio makes it easy to build WPF application, with drag-in-drop and/or direct editing of XAML markup. WinForms is another UI framework for building Windows desktop applications that is supported on .NET (6.0.x/5.0.x/3.1.x). WPF and WinForms applications only run on Windows. -

Foundatio
Pluggable foundation blocks for building distributed apps
Pluggable foundation blocks for building loosely coupled distributed apps. Includes implementations in Redis, Azure, AWS, RabbitMQ and in memory (for development). When building several big cloud applications we found a lack of great solutions (that's not to say there aren't solutions out there) for many key pieces to building scalable distributed applications while keeping the development experience simple. Wanted to build against abstract interfaces so that we could easily change implementations. Wanted the blocks to be dependency injection friendly. We were initially using an open-source Redis cache client but then it turned into a commercial product with high licensing costs. Not only that but there weren't any in-memory implementations so every developer was required to set up and configure Redis. We initially looked at NServiceBus (a great product) but it had high licensing costs (they have to eat too) and was not OSS friendly. -

SignalR
Incredibly simple real-time web for .NET
Today's modern apps are expected to deliver up-to-date information without hitting a refresh button. Add real-time functionality to your dashboards, maps, games and more. What is real-time functionality? It's the ability to have your server-side code push content to connected clients as it happens, in real-time. SignalR hubs can be written in C# code and added to your ASP.NET app, alongside your pages and APIs. The simple programming model integrates seamlessly with other ASP.NET features like dependency injection, authentication, authorization, and scalability. While chat is often used as an example, you can do a whole lot more. Any time a user refreshes a web page to see new data, or the page implements Ajax long polling to retrieve new data, it's candidate for using SignalR. SignalR also enables completely new types of applications that require high-frequency updates from the server, such as real-time gaming. -

Electron.NET
Build cross platform desktop apps with ASP.NET Core
Build cross-platform desktop apps with .NET 5 and ASP.NET NET Core (Razor Pages, MVC), Blazor. Electron.NET is a wrapper around a "normal" Electron application with an embedded ASP.NET Core application. Via our Electron.NET IPC bridge we can invoke Electron APIs from .NET. The CLI extensions host our toolset to build and start Electron.NET applications. There are lots of different approaches how to get an X-plat desktop app running. We thought it would be nice for .NET devs to use the ASP.NET Core environment and just embed it inside a pretty robust X-plat environment called Electron. Porting Electron to .NET is not a goal of this project, at least we don't have any clue how to do it. We just combine ASP.NET Core & Electron. The current Electron.NET CLI builds Windows/macOS/Linux binaries. Our API uses .NET 5, so our minimum base OS is the same as .NET 5. -

Orleans
Orleans is a cross-platform framework for building distributed apps
Orleans builds on the developer productivity of .NET and brings it to the world of distributed applications, such as cloud services. Orleans scales from a single on-premises server to globally distributed, highly-available applications in the cloud. Orleans takes familiar concepts like objects, interfaces, async/await, and try/catch and extends them to multi-server environments. As such, it helps developers experienced with single-server applications transition to building resilient, scalable cloud services and other distributed applications. For this reason, Orleans has often been referred to as "Distributed .NET". It was created by Microsoft Research and introduced the Virtual Actor Model as a novel approach to building a new generation of distributed systems for the Cloud era. The core contribution of Orleans is its programming model which tames the complexity inherent to highly-parallel distributed systems without restricting capabilities or imposing onerous constraints. -

Polly
A .NET resilience and transient-fault-handling library for policies
Polly is a .NET resilience and transient-fault-handling library that allows developers to express policies such as Retry, Circuit Breaker, Timeout, Bulkhead Isolation, and Fallback in a fluent and thread-safe manner. From version 6.0.1, Polly targets .NET Standard 1.1 and 2.0+. Today's cloud application, mobile, data-streaming, and IoT technologies all depend vitally on reliable connectivity. But underlying systems can fail, and networks are notoriously fickle, outages, latency, transient blips, spikes in load, all challenge 100% reliability. Polly helps you navigate the unreliable network. By providing resilience strategies in fluent-to-express policies such as Retry, WaitAndRetry, and CircuitBreaker, Polly can help you reduce fragility, and keep your systems and customers connected. Example usages are fault-tolerance for any distributed systems and inter-process calls, such as WCF, RESTful calls between microservices, calls to cloud services, Internet of Things connectivity, etc. -

AWS .NET deployment tool
The tooling that simplifies deployment of .NET applications
AWS Deploy Tool is an interactive tooling for the .NET CLI and the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio that helps deploy .NET applications with minimum AWS knowledge, and with the fewest clicks or commands. It works by analyzing .NET projects and guiding developers to the right AWS service. It then selects the right deployment service, builds and packages your application, and creates the deployment infrastructure. It allows for a quick and easy Proof of concept (POC), smooth graduation to CI/CD, and a gradual ramp-up of AWS knowledge. Get recommendations about the type of computing best suited for your application based on the application type. The tool will generate a Dockerfile if needed, otherwise, an existing Dockerfile will be used. The tool builds the deployment artifacts, generates a deployment CDK project, provisions the infrastructure and deploys your application to the chosen AWS compute. -

Brighter
A framework for building messaging apps with .NET and C#
This project is a Command Processor & Dispatcher implementation with support for task queues that can be used as a lightweight library. It can be used for implementing Ports and Adapters and CQRS (PDF) architectural styles in .NET. It can also be used in microservices architectures for decoupled communication between the services. Brighter supports Task Queues. As such it can be used to improve performance by introducing concurrency using a queue, and/or as an integration strategy between Microservices using messaging via a lightweight broker. Brighter provides support for CQRS architecture. It provides a simple library for routing commands and events to handlers. Brighter allows you to offload work from your web process to a worker process via a task queue. This allows in or out-of-process handlers. Brighter can act as a communications library for microservices, allowing commands or events to be passed between services. -

Cocona
Micro-framework for .NET console application
Micro-framework for .NET console application. Cocona makes it easy and fast to build console applications on .NET. Cocona has a mechanism called Parameter set that defines common parameters for multiple commands. For example, if every command receives a user name, host name, etc., it would be annoying to define them in a method for each command. If a class (or record class) has a parameterized constructor, it is treated as part of the definition of a command method. Cocona has filter mechanism like ASP.NET Core's action filter. Filters allow custom processing before or after you run a command. If a constructor has parameters, Cocona injects an instance obtained from IServiceProvider into the parameter. Cocona provides support for shell command-line completion (also known as tab completion).
