SLNX – XML-based Visual Studio Solution Files – No more cryptic GUIDs – How to Manage from CLI

Post author By Vijay Anand E G
Post date Aug 13, 2024

No more cryptic GUIDs - Here's XML-based SLNX solution files.

Comprehending the intricacies of a system often requires more than just deciphering the code itself. It also involves understanding the web of dependencies that are inextricably linked to it.

This includes navigating through solution files, project files, package references, static asset management, build configuration, and other related components.

With .NET going cross-platform, SDK-style projects have been introduced. The project files have been significantly simplified. They are now more comprehensible. Due to their XML-based nature, they can be easily modified using a basic text editor.

Nonetheless, the restructuring of the Visual Studio solution file is long overdue due to its intricate layout and obscure GUIDs.
