Request for generating package sln

Would it be possible to add an optional feature to generate an sln for an embedded package?

The use case is that I want to contribute and work on someone else's open source package but my code formatting is different than theirs. With VS Code you can create omnisharp.json settings project wide and you can switch sln projects. If I could switch to a generated package sln during development, I could override my project wide omnisharp settings with local omnisharp settings and not have coding style conflicts.

 

Hey there. Thanks for the great suggestion!

I've passed this onto the team who quite like this. They'll raise it formerly and see what we can do. We can't guarantee when/if this will be done but it's certainly something we like the idea of.

 

Awesome! For the meantime I am just using a separate project solely for contributing to a package and then pulling those changes into my actual project. It's not ideal but is a decent workaround for the meantime if anyone else runs into this issue.
