# Fuser

**Fuser** is an MSBuild task that merges selected referenced assemblies into your project's output assembly at build time.

## Why?

The main motivation is to avoid dependency conflicts and version mismatches in shared hosting and plugin environments. 

The project is still in its infancy, I haven't clearly defined the objectives yet. Tell me about your specific scenarios and the pain points you're facing.

### Initial idea

Mark any package you want to be merged into your output as follows.

```xml

  

    true

  

  

    Lib2.dll

    true

  

  

```

✅ No need to manually merge or pack.  

✅ Works during normal `dotnet build` and `dotnet test`.  

✅ Simple configuration with a `true` property on any `Reference`.
