Porting Assistant for .NET

Concept

Section titled “Concept”

Porting Assistant for .NET checks an old .NET Framework app and tells you what needs to change to move it to the new .NET. .NET Framework runs only on Windows, while the new .NET runs in many places, including Linux. This tool checks the app’s code and the packages it uses (NuGet) and marks which ones will not work with the new .NET. Based on this, it gives a report that you can use to plan the conversion. For new work, AWS now points to AWS Transform for .NET.
