This repo is for experimentation and exploring new ideas that may or may not make it into the main dotnet/runtime repo. Encouraging .NET Runtime Experiments describes reasons that motivated creating this repository.
Currently, this repo contains the following experimental projects:
- DllImportGenerator - Roslyn Source Generator used for generating P/Invoke IL stubs.
- JsonCodeGen - Code generation for JSON.
- NativeAOT - .NET runtime optimized for ahead of time compilation.
- Utf8String - A new UTF-8 String data type in the runtime.
- RegexSRM - Incorporating MSR's Symbolic Regex Matcher (SRM) into System.Text.RegularExpressions
- FreeBSD - Port of .NET runtime to FreeBSD
- s390x - Port of .NET runtime (Mono) to the s390x architecture
- NativeAOT-LLVM - LLVM generation for Native AOT compilation (including Web Assembly)
- ManagedQuic - Fully managed implementation of QUIC protocol
You can create your own experiment, learn more here!
