AWS Toolkit for .NET Refactoring
AWS Toolkit for .NET Refactoring scans your legacy .NET applications and suggests replacement configurations to refactor it for Linux environments.
Assists with making changes to project reference files and Windows dependency configurations to reduce guesswork and manual effort.
Helps you validate code changes by providing the option to run on AWS directly from Visual Studio.
AWS Toolkit for .NET Refactoring is a Visual Studio extension that reduces the time and effort required for developers to refactor legacy .NET applications to cloud-based alternatives on AWS. It assesses the application source code to recommend possible modernization pathways such as porting to .NET Core, identifies Windows-specific IIS and Active Directory dependency configurations, performs code modifications where possible to enable Linux compatibility, and helps validate the refactored application on AWS services - all without leaving Visual Studio IDE. It eliminates the burden of learning multiple tools or working across multiple interfaces, removes the guesswork in application refactoring, and expedites the modernization journey with AWS.
The AWS Toolkit for .NET Refactoring is available as a Visual Studio IDE extension for Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2022.
How it works
The diagram outlines key features of AWS Toolkit for .NET Refactoring with four sections displayed from left to right
The first section provides an overview of AWS Toolkit for .NET Refactoring. It provides insights and assistance to refactor legacy .NET Framework applications to cross-platform .NET.
The second, third, and fourth section provide information on the product's key features.
The second section outlines "Assessment" as a key feature. It states that the toolkit "scans your .NET application to identify refactoring pathways".
The third section outlines "Porting" as another feature. It states that the toolkit "Assists with code modifications to kickstart refactoring"
The fourth and last section states "Testing on AWS environments" as another feature. It states that you can "Validate changes by running on AWS environments directly from the IDE.
