.NET Runtime

Build Status Help Wanted Gitter Discord

This repo contains the code to build the .NET runtime, libraries and shared host (dotnet) installers for all supported platforms, as well as the sources to .NET runtime and libraries.

What is .NET?​

Official Starting Page: https://dotnet.microsoft.com

How can I contribute?​

We welcome contributions! Many people all over the world have helped make this project better.

Reporting security issues and security bugs​

Security issues and bugs should be reported privately, via email, to the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) secure@microsoft.com. You should receive a response within 24 hours. If for some reason you do not, please follow up via email to ensure we received your original message. Further information, including the MSRC PGP key, can be found in the Security TechCenter. You can also find these instructions in this repo's Security doc.

Also see info about related Microsoft .NET Core and ASP.NET Core Bug Bounty Program.

Filing issues​

This repo should contain issues that are tied to the runtime, the class libraries and frameworks, the installation of the dotnet binary (sometimes known as the muxer) and the installation of the .NET runtime and libraries.

For other issues, please file them to their appropriate sibling repos. We have links to many of them on our new issue page.
