" summary

Project Roslyn is a complete C# and VB language engine rewritten in C# and published open source on GitHub, powering compilers, IDE features and language services; it exposes immutable syntax trees and a public API so analyzers, refactorings and fixes run in Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code and via OmniSharp. Demo builds an analyzer that flags missing braces and supplies a code fix, using edit‑and‑continue to hot‑reload changes. Roadmap items include tuples, pattern matching and nullability tracking.
