Coding Guidelines for C# (up to v10)

See the landing page at https://www.csharpcodingguidelines.com

How to create the PDFs

1. From the root of the repo, run the build.bat script to build the HTML versions of the guidelines and cheat sheet.
2. From the Artifacts folder, open the CSharpCodingGuidelines.htm into your favorite browser and print as PDF. Use the default margins, no headers and footers, and set the scaling to 80% for A4 sheets.
3. Do the same for the CSharpCodingGuidelinesCheatsheet.htm, but use landscape orientation and minimum margins. A scaling of 84% should allow you to print the cheat sheet as a double-sided A4 sheet. Just make sure you disable headers and footers, and enable printing background graphics to keep the colored boxes with auxiliary information.
