.NET Template

This is my personal, opinionated template for new .NET projects.

Template Details

The project layout is inspired by the .NET Project Structure gist.

Configuration files

• Explicit global.json, nuget.config
• Directory.Build.props and tests/Directory.Build.props for cross-project configuration

Automatic versioning

This project uses GitVersion in Mainline mode. Using the MSBuild Task. GitVersion will also be installed by Cake to display Version in the Setup phase

WARNING:

GitFlow: If you use GitFlow then make sure run .\tools\dotnet-gitversion.exe init or ./tools/dotnet-gitversion init and update the GitVersion.yaml accordingly

Mainline: Do not set the next-version property in mainline mode. Use git tag instead to pin versions

Getting Started

Run init.ps1 to rename solution and remove sample code

.\init.ps1 -SolutionName SolutionName
