Provide opt-in to experimental APIs using C#12 ExperimentalAttribute

Read Original

This article details the introduction of the ExperimentalAttribute in C#12, which allows library and framework developers to explicitly mark APIs as experimental and subject to change. It explains how applying the attribute causes build errors for consumers, forcing them to explicitly opt-in via project file configuration or pragma directives, similar to mechanisms in other languages like Kotlin. The post includes code examples and discusses best practices like providing a URL for more information.
