Getting noticed, but rough fundamentals could turn visitors away.
🚀 My Personal C# .NET Developer Roadmap & Asp.Net Core Developer Roadmap in 2026
A low grade is a to-do list, not a judgment of your code
Most gaps here are documentation, tests, and setup, not the code itself. Closing your top 3 gaps alone would lift this repo to D (69).
See your top fixesTop fixes
Highest-impact changes first, ranked by point weight
- 1Tests18pt
Add automated tests. They prove the code works and give contributors confidence to make changes.
- 2CI/CD14pt
If your CI lives elsewhere (a private repo that builds this one) or this project is itself a CI/CD tool, mark this check Not Applicable. Otherwise add a GitHub Actions workflow that runs tests on each push. It takes 15 minutes and reassures contributors their changes won't break things.
- 3README12pt
Expand with a description, install steps, usage, and examples.
- 4README12pt
Show a quick-start snippet so contributors can see what using your project looks like.
Working through the fixes? Let every push regrade itself.
The free GitHub App rescans this repo on every push and posts the grade as a commit check, so the score climbs without coming back to rescan by hand.

Documentation
47
No install instructions found in the README (−45 pts).
→ Add a section showing how to install dependencies.
Contributing guidance is in the README, not a dedicated CONTRIBUTING.md (−20 pts).
→ Moving it to a CONTRIBUTING.md makes it easier to find and keeps the README focused. A dedicated file earns +47 pts base.
README is present.

Engineering
1
No tests detected anywhere in the repository.
→ Add automated tests. They prove the code works and give contributors confidence to make changes.
No CI configuration detected in this repository.
→ If your CI lives elsewhere (a private repo that builds this one) or this project is itself a CI/CD tool, mark this check Not Applicable. Otherwise add a GitHub Actions workflow that runs tests on each push. It takes 15 minutes and reassures contributors their changes won't break things.
No .NET formatter configured.
→ Add an .editorconfig to define C# formatting rules and run `dotnet format` in CI.
No issue or PR templates found (−100 pts).
→ Add .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ with bug_report.md and feature_request.md to guide contributors. It dramatically improves issue quality.
No dependency lockfile found (−70 pts).
→ Enable and commit packages.lock.json so NuGet restores are repeatable.
