Target frameworks

Most runtime packages in this repository multi-target:

• netstandard2.0
• net461
• net6.0
• net8.0
• net10.0

The generator and codegen packages target netstandard2.0.

Repository prerequisites

The repository uses git submodules for upstream SVG sources and external test data. After cloning:

git submodule update --init --recursive

The local docs pipeline also uses a .NET tool manifest for Lunet:

dotnet tool restore

The standalone Uno sample app additionally needs Uno workloads configured through uno-check, but the default repository solution does not:

uno-check --target desktop --target web --target android --target ios

Project workflow commands

Formatting:

dotnet format --no-restore

Build:

dotnet build Svg.Skia.slnx -c Release
