Hooray! The stable release of .NET 6 is now officially available. This latest evolution from Microsoft brings a lot of improvements and features to multiple platforms, such as web, desktop, mobile, etc. It is important to note that Microsoft has promised to support .NET 6 till November 2024.
Also, the stable version of Visual Studio 2022 was released with a lot of exciting features for developers.
We at Syncfusion always make sure our products are compatible and have support for the latest releases from Microsoft. Likewise, we are happy to say that our Blazor, ASP.NET Core, WPF, and WinForms suites are compatible with the latest stable release of .NET 6 and work fine with the latest version of Visual Studio 2022.
The following sections will briefly discuss important changes related to Syncfusion controls to be noted for developers working with .NET 6 and Visual Studio 2022.

GitHub reference
We have already added .NET 6 projects to our samples on GitHub, but our latest installer will not have these projects. We will add these projects in our upcoming Volume 4, 2021 release.
Extension support for Visual Studio 2022
We wrote a separate blog “Syncfusion Visual Studio Extensions Are Now Compatible with Visual Studio 2022.” Please note that currently, these extensions do not support creating projects for .NET 6. We assure you that this support will be available in our upcoming Volume 4, 2021 release, which is scheduled for release by the end of December.
