Overview
StyleCop Analyzers is a static code analysis tool for .NET projects, implemented using the .NET Compiler Platform (Roslyn). It enforces a set of style and consistency rules on C# code, helping development teams maintain a consistent code style across projects. The tool integrates directly into Visual Studio 2015 and later through NuGet packages. It works by analyzing the code during compilation and flagging any violations of the configured rules. Code fixes are often provided to automatically correct violations. StyleCop Analyzers is configured via rule set files or a stylecop.json file, allowing customization of rule severity and behavior. It supports various C# language versions, ensuring compatibility with different project requirements. The tool aims to improve code readability, reduce potential bugs, and enhance overall code quality in .NET projects.
