  • Flexible: Convert a small selection, or a whole solution in one go, in either direction.
  • Accurate: Full project context (through Roslyn) is used to get the most accurate conversion.
  • Safe: Conversion runs entirely locally - your code doesn't leave your machine.

Let us know what needs improving. If you want to get involved in writing the code yourself, even better! We've already had code contributions from several first time GitHub contributors, so don't be shy! See Contributing.md for more info.
