How it works

It is recommended to backup your project before using it just in case something unexpected happens.

The tool will automatically detect your csproj files and their package.config's and automatically migrate.

PineMigration reads the content of your package.config and extracts information such as the name and version of each NuGet package and writes it into the needed PackageReference format. It will then find your csproj file and paste the result at end of you file right before closing "Project" element.
