Building Ampere

Prerequisites:

  • Visual Studio 2017 or Later OR VSCode
  • .NET 5 (with .NET Core)

The default language setting for this project is C# 9.0. The project can be built using dotnet build and the output will display the AssemblyPath.

Documentation

There are two components to Ampere documentation:

  1. Assembly Documentation
  2. Miscellaneous Documentation (README.md, Wiki's, Discussions, etc...)

All Ampere methods are documented using .NET XML documentation. This is compiled using DocFX with the docfx.json file under the DocFX folder. DocFX creates static HTML pages which are used by Ampere Docs. Lastly, as a fluid repository, many files change and constantly need to be documented and updated.

Roadmap

There are two planned releases - the latest being by July 2021:

  • 0.1.0 - First full release of Ampere
  • 0.2.0 - Additional statistics data analysis tools.
