Features

  • Add PackageReference dependencies to your .NET Core 1.1+ .csproj or .fsproj files from Visual Studio Code's Command Palette.
  • Remove installed packages from your project's .csproj or .fsproj files via Visual Studio Code's Command Palette.

Known Issues

  • The XML-to-JavaScript parser that this extension uses currently strips out comments from the project file. Unfortunately, there is no way around this at the moment, but the eventual plan is to replace this dependency.
  • The extension does not add DotNetCliToolsReference entries for tools.
