SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you assess and plan the migration of legacy .NET Framework applications to modern .NET versions, mitigating risks and ensuring a smooth transition.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Codebase Analysis: Scans your .NET Framework solution to identify dependencies, framework-specific APIs, and potential migration blockers.
  • Risk Assessment: Quantifies the complexity and risk associated with migrating each project and the entire solution.
  • Migration Planning: Generates a phased roadmap, including project order, effort estimates, and rollback strategies.
  • Use Case: You have a critical .NET Framework 4.8 application with many third-party dependencies. Use this Skill to understand the effort and risks involved in upgrading to .NET 10 before committing resources.

Quick Start

Analyze the current .NET Framework solution located at '/path/to/your/solution.sln' for migration to .NET 10.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze a legacy .NET Framework codebase for migration to .NET 10?▼

To analyze a .NET Framework codebase for .NET 10 migration, scan your solution to identify dependencies, Windows-specific APIs, and incompatible NuGet packages. This process assesses risks and quantifies breaking changes to ensure a smooth transition.

What are common breaking changes and migration blockers when modernizing .NET Framework apps?▼

Common migration blockers when modernizing .NET Framework apps include incompatible NuGet packages, Windows-specific APIs, and configuration differences. Scanning the codebase identifies these breaking changes and quantifies the complexity and risk of migrating each project.

Can I generate a phased migration plan for a .NET Framework 4.8 application?▼

Yes, you can generate a phased migration plan for a .NET Framework 4.8 application. The plan includes a project migration order, effort estimates, and rollback strategies to help you understand the resources needed before upgrading.

Does the .NET Upgrade Assistant assess risks and effort estimates for legacy codebases?▼

The .NET Upgrade Assistant performs comprehensive code scanning and dependency auditing to assess risks and quantify breaking changes. It evaluates the complexity of migrating legacy solutions and generates effort estimates for each project.

What is the best way to identify incompatible NuGet packages before upgrading .NET projects?▼

The best way to identify incompatible NuGet packages is through dependency auditing and codebase analysis. Scanning your .NET Framework solution detects unsupported packages and Windows-specific APIs, providing a clear risk assessment for your migration.
