You can improve .NET reflection performance by using C# source generators to generate compile-time code. This approach eliminates traditional runtime reflection overhead, providing high-performance, zero-allocation property access for .NET applications.

Source-generated reflection is a technique that uses C# source generators to produce static reflection code at compile time. It works for AOT compilation by replacing dynamic runtime reflection with pre-generated, compile-time code, ensuring AOT compatibility and faster execution.

To implement reflection-free JSON serialization in .NET, integrate ReflectorJsonConverter into your application. This uses source-generated property access to serialize objects dynamically without incurring traditional runtime reflection overhead.

Yes, you can use source generators to generate assembly info by automatically creating static classes. These classes are populated with build constants derived directly from your project properties at compile time.

Traditional .NET reflection often encounters limitations and overhead with AOT compilation because it relies on dynamic runtime metadata. Replacing it with compile-time, source-generated reflection code ensures AOT compliance and eliminates runtime overhead.

The best way to set up source-generated property access is to add the Shiny.Reflector NuGet package to your project and mark your target classes with the [Reflector] attribute, enabling compile-time code generation for high-performance property manipulation.
