There are two primary ways to use this tool. The most common method is the Visual Studio Extension.
You’ve built a solid .NET application. Maybe it’s running on .NET Framework 4.8. Maybe it’s on .NET 6, but you’re considering moving to a Linux environment or a different cloud provider. The question isn’t just “will it run?”—it’s “what will break?”
Overall portability: 94% (Excellent)
dotnet tool install --global NetPortabilityAnalyzer net-analyzer analyze ./src --target net8.0
The Net Portability Analyzer is a CLI + web-based tool that scans your .NET solution or compiled assembly and produces a detailed portability report. It tells you:
The result? That same migration now takes of prep and zero surprises during deployment.
Think of it as a GPS for code migration—showing you the fastest, safest route from where you are to where you want to be.
Here’s a draft blog post for a tool called . You can adjust the tone (more technical, more business-focused) and fill in any placeholders like links or specific metrics.
It answers the question:
The analyzer will flag methods used from third-party DLLs (e.g., Newtonsoft.Json, Entity Framework).
The generated report typically includes a , which gives an at-a-glance percentage of how much of each assembly is ready for the new platform. Detailed spreadsheets will list every incompatible API and, in many cases, suggest recommended alternatives or shims to help you reach 100% compatibility. Current Status and Alternatives
