Docs: Create reference-source-like site for .Net Core

Created on 4 May 2016  路  3Comments  路  Source: dotnet/docs

Reference Source and Roslyn both have Roslyn-based sites that allow easy navigation of their source code. It would be nice if there was a similar site for .Net Core.

For me, the most important difference between the Roslyn-based site and using Github directly is finding some member. GitHub search is text-based, so it does not differentiate between declaration and usage. You can mostly get around that by searching for some string that's unique to the declaration (e.g. "void Method" for void-returning method Method), but that's cumbersome.

This is something we've talked about and ultimately may want to do. It would involve building a Roslyn index over corefx with SourceBrowser.

@svick Too bad ASP.NET Core isn't available there. A part of it is available at http://sourcebrowser.io/Browse/aspnet
