Recently I’ve been working on a Visual Studio extension to automate the tedious parts of code authoring at work. It turns out that there is a lot of knowledge out there, but quite spread. Here’s my try to get a somewhat short, end-to-end tutorial on how to create a new Visual Studio extension, with Roslyn, parse some code and then generate some more.
I’ll assume you know nothing about Visual Studio extensions and Roslyn, but, at least, install Visual Studio SDK first.
