This repository contains the .NET Project System for [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/) that is written on top of the [Common Project System (CPS)](https://github.com/microsoft/VSProjectSystem) framework. In Visual Studio 2017, Visual Studio 2019, and Visual Studio 2022, this project system is used for .NET Core [SDK-style] (C#, F# and Visual Basic) and Shared Projects (C# and Visual Basic) project types.

For a list of feature differences between the project systems, see [Feature Comparison](docs/feature-comparison.md).
