"the Dot Net compiler you don't wanna miss"
What do you like best about Roslyn?

So, when I started using Roslyn, I had my doubts as we all have before shifting to a new compiler, but oh boy did it exceed my expectations, No more was my code having any compiler errors but it would also help me resolve the pre-coded errors in the existing projects.

We would analyze our code and refactor all of it in Roslyn and it wouldn't feel like we are doing big things. It makes you feel like you are simply using a software as simple as Word. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

Well, sometimes I feel difficult to use it for API's and stuff but you do need to get familiar with the compiler. Once you are through its a piece of cake. So, yeah docs could have been well formatted (better than they are at the moment) but then yeah, you cannot blame them it depends on individual's way of perception and understanding.

So as a beginner you might want to first go through all of the features without straightaway diving into the use of the compiler into your final and prouduction projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"REVIEW of Roslyn. A great compiler for .NET platform."
What do you like best about Roslyn?

I am a regular programmer of C# and .NET and the native complier what we get with windows in visual studio. And what I wanted to get is a compiler as a service solution and Roslyn provides that.

The best feature about Roslyn is when the application we are writing, we need a scripting interface. With Roslyn, we get script complied as the original C# code. With same programming capabilities with application source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

The only thing that I feel might be the challenge that implementing Roslyn can be slightly tricky for the beginners. So the learning curve is a bit difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review of Roslyn : A great compiler for creating .NET Applications"
What do you like best about Roslyn?

Roslyn is a very powerful compiler used to compile .NET applications. Since it provides Compilation as a Service, it enables to easily break down the compilation steps to different pieces and helps check the syntactical aspect of the code that we write in c#. It allows to use Aspect Oriented programming

It has got a lot of advantages like :

1. provides great logging capabilities

2. has great exception handling

3. Thread is automatic thread synchronization taking place. Therefore threading and multi threading concepts are great in Roslyn support for C#

4. auditing of functions takes place automatically Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

It was a little hard to set up earlier but after that it has been a blaze to use. For those who use Visual Studio or other compilers, they will find Roslyn great to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"This software facilitates not only writing code, but also writing good code."
What do you like best about Roslyn?

Roslyn demystifies the deeper foundations for developing software. The Roslyn interface is much more intuitive. Things such as methods, tools, events... are shown as you type and complete them immediately, making it easier not only to type code, but also to write code. Therefore, it's evaluated-the fly when you write your code to help avoid time errors. Roslyn will simplify and improve the code and promote your lives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

Personally, I never looked back when I first used Roslyn. It was one of my favorite digital belt tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Roslyn has changed my development from a chore to an efficent pleasure"
What do you like best about Roslyn?

Roslyn demystifies a lot of the deeper fundamentals that are required for developing software. With Roslyn you are presented with a much more intuitive interface. Things like methods, properties, events and others are all surfaced as you type, with auto-complete, making it easier to not only write code, but to write good code. And, on top of that, as you write your code it is being parsed on-the-fly to help you avoid compile time errors. With Roslyn your code will be cleaner and stronger, making your life easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

Honestly, after using Roslyn for the first time, I've never looked back. It's been one of the most beloved tools in my digital belt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Compiler "
What do you like best about Roslyn?

The software is easy to use and it has a nice interface. The autocomplete feature in events, methods and properties etc makes the work simpler, easier and faster as well as accuracy, I would say they are one of the best out there Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

I love it, but I firmly believe that new users may be a little alarmed and it should be simplified for new users who may be looking in to it, I am sure the team could achieve this . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Compile and Analysis Native"
What do you like best about Roslyn?

Roslyn opens the doors for open source world with native Code Analysis and Compilation and self hosting features. You can expand the abilities to another level on Dotnet Core applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

Seperate folder in the bin directory during the deployment. It could be a small library instead of a folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great C# and Visual Basic compiler "
What do you like best about Roslyn?

Great compiler of C # and VB.NET that provides a huge amount of APIS and also includes a traditional command line. The truth lives up to the name of ".NET Compiler Platform". Undoubtedly one of the best ones to perform APIS for code analysis and refactoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Roslyn?

The truth does not put many disadvantages ... even if I have to put an inconvenience would say that its learning curve can be elevated for someone who is not 100% familiar with its architecture. But it's not complicated if you're already familiar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
