Documents Index

This repo includes several documents that explain both high-level and low-level concepts about the .NET runtime and libraries. These are very useful for contributors, to get context that can be very difficult to acquire from just reading code.

Intro to .NET

.NET is a self-contained .NET runtime and framework that implements ECMA 335. It can be (and has been) ported to multiple architectures and platforms. It support a variety of installation options, having no specific deployment requirements itself.

Getting Started

Workflow (Building, testing, benchmarking, profiling, etc.)
