What is the difference between Production and Staged lanes?

The Production lane is a direct LTS-to-LTS move (e.g., 8 to 10), whereas the Staged lane moves through intermediate STS versions (e.g., 8 to 9 to 10) to reduce risk in complex ecosystems.

Can I use this for preview versions of .NET?

Absolutely. It includes a specific 'Experimental Lane' for migrating to and testing .NET 11 previews, including instructions on enabling preview features and pinning SDKs.

Does it update my project files automatically?

It provides the specific XML and JSON snippets needed for updates and guides you through using automated CLI tools like the .NET Upgrade Assistant for bulk modifications.

Does this skill handle .NET Framework to .NET Core migrations?

Yes, it provides strategic guidance for using the .NET Upgrade Assistant, which is the industry-standard tool for legacy .NET Framework to modern .NET migrations.

How does it help with breaking changes?

It provides checklists and direct links to official documentation for breaking changes in .NET 9 and 10, plus a table of common API replacements like migrating from BinaryFormatter to System.Text.Json.

Streamlines the migration of .NET applications to newer Target Framework Monikers through structured upgrade lanes and best practices.

The .NET Version Upgrade skill provides comprehensive guidance for transitioning .NET projects between versions, covering LTS-to-LTS transitions, staged STS migrations, and experimental preview exploration. It integrates with tools like dotnet-outdated and the .NET Upgrade Assistant to help developers manage Target Framework Moniker (TFM) updates, package dependencies, breaking change detection, and API replacements. By consuming structured data from detection skills, it offers a clear roadmap for updating global.json, project files, and CI/CD configurations while ensuring backward compatibility and performance optimization through modern C# features.
