Kind: Module

Source: libs

.NET project in solution

The libs module is a .NET project within the solution that contains shared library code intended for reuse by other projects. It centralizes common domain logic, utilities, and abstractions so application projects can reference a consistent implementation.

Usage

ts
import { execFileSync } from "node:child_process";

// Build the shared .NET library before building or running
// projects that reference it.
execFileSync(
  "dotnet",
  ["build", "libs/libs.csproj", "--configuration", "Release"],
  { stdio: "inherit" }
);

AI Coding Instructions

  • Keep reusable, application-agnostic logic in libs; avoid placing host-specific configuration or UI concerns here.
  • Preserve public API compatibility when changing shared models, interfaces, or utility methods because multiple projects may reference this project.
  • Add the libs project as a project reference from consuming .csproj files rather than copying shared source files.
  • Run dotnet build for the solution after changes to catch dependency and compilation issues across all consumers.
