Need a little help cleaning up your code? CodeMaid will help with that developer dirty work...

Dotnetjalps-asp.net - CodeMaid extension for visual studio

Till now I’m a resharper fan boy and I still love using it. It is a great productivity tool. But it is not free for commercial use. So lots of my friends tell we want something open source or free which provide some kind of productivity over normal visual studio things and recently I came across CodeMaid extension of visual studio. It is a great plugin.

What is CodeMaid?

CodeMaid is an open source Visual Studio extension to cleanup, dig through and simplify our C#, C++, F#, VB, XAML, XML, ASP, HTML, CSS, LESS, JavaScript and TypeScript coding.

Code Digging
Visualize and navigate through the contents of your C# and C++ files from a tree view hierarchy. Quickly switch between different sorting methods to get a better overview. Drag and drop to reorganize the code. See McCabe complexity scores and informative tooltips.

Reorganizing
Reorganize the layout of members in a C# file to follow Microsoft’s StyleCop convention, or your own preferences.

Collapsing
Recursively collapse nodes or the entire tree in the solution explorer window.

Configuring
Enable, modify or disable many of the aspects of how CodeMaid does its work.

Formatting
Format comments to wrap at a specified column and arrange XML major and minor tags on separate lines.

Progressing
View the overall progress of a build within Visual Studio, or in the Windows taskbar, both with a green/red status indication.

Switching
Switch between related files, such as cpp and header files or xaml and code-behind.

Joining
Join two adjacent lines, or a highlighted section of code onto a single line.

Finding
Find the current file in the solution explorer window.

and More!
Toggle read-only state, close read-only files, etc.

I dig the number of languages supported (and that it's OSS :) This is SO likely to see a Coding4Fun blog post in the near future... :)
