C# 12: The Experimental Attribute

Read Original

This technical article details the C# 12 'Experimental' attribute, part of the System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis namespace. It explains how library authors can use this attribute to flag unstable APIs, causing compile-time errors for consumers who must explicitly suppress them to use the code. The post includes a practical example with a class library and console application to demonstrate the attribute's implementation and behavior.
