The F# compiler as a component. For editors. For analyzers. For love. You know you want it.

F# Compiler Service

The FSharp.Compiler.Service package contains a custom build of the F# compiler that exposes additional functionality for implementing F# language bindings, additional tools based on the compiler or refactoring tools. The package also includes F# interactive service that can be used for embedding F# scripting into your applications. This repository exists entirely to create and publish that package.

Purpose

This repo is (mostly) read only

This repo exists as a downstream packaging repository for the FSharp.Compiler.Service NuGet Package. It serves the following purposes only:

• Release packaging
• Hosting public documentation
• Serving as a stable base for Fable

It is a fork of the official F# source repository, which is located at dotnet/fsharp. All issues and contributions should be raised there. All feature development should be targeted there. Once contributions are accepted into dotnet/fsharp, they will be integrated into this repository for packaging and release.

If you need to add customizations to FSharp.Compiler.Service for your own uses, you should clone dotnet/fsharp and build the FSharp.Compiler.Service binaries from there. The process is exactly the same as it is described below.

No contribution is too small

Even if you find a single-character typo, we're happy to take the change! Although the codebase can feel daunting for beginners, we and other contributors are happy to help you along.
