The generated solution file will also work in regular Visual Studio.

## Features

- Build tasks for both .NET Framework, Mono, and .NET 6 side by side
- VSCode debugger integration

## Requirements

- [Git](https://git-scm.com/) or [Git for Windows](https://gitforwindows.org/) on Windows
- [.NET 6 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0)
- [.NET Framework 4.6.1 Developer Pack](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net461) on Windows

## Installation

- Make sure you have Git Bash from Git for Windows if you are on Windows
- Download this repository
