Source generators are a metaprogramming feature that adds new source code to your project during the compilation phase.
Source generators are ideal for replacing reflection, creating high-performance parsers, generating strongly-typed APIs, and producing AOT-friendly code.
Source generators can only add new code, not modify existing code, and they run in a non-deterministic order but can produce compiler diagnostics.
A step-by-step walkthrough shows how to create a basic source generator that adds a static class and method to the compilation.
This demonstration shows how to read an external file during compilation and dynamically generate a C# class based on its contents.
Learn how to use attributes and a syntax receiver to automatically generate the boilerplate code for the INotifyPropertyChanged interface.
This example demonstrates building a source generator that creates a fast, custom serialization method for a class marked with an attribute.
Understand the two types of dependencies for source generators and learn how to report custom warnings or errors back to the developer.
Source generators are a powerful tool for library authors to reduce boilerplate, improve performance, and create better developer experiences.
