System.Collections by: Microsoft

Provides classes that define generic collections, which allow developers to create strongly typed collections that provide better type safety and performance than non-generic strongly typed collections. Commonly Used Types: System.Collections.Generic.List<T> System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<TKey, TValue> System.Collections.Generic.Queue<T> System.Collections.Generic.Stack<T> System.Collections.Generic.HashSet<T> System.Collections.Generic.LinkedList<T> System.Collections.Generic.EqualityComparer<T> System.Collections.Generic.Comparer<T> System.Collections.Generic.SortedDictionary<TKey, TValue> When using NuGet 3.x this package requires at least version 3.4.

System.Collections.Concurrent by: Microsoft

Provides several thread-safe collection classes that should be used in place of the corresponding types in the System.Collections.NonGeneric and System.Collections packages whenever multiple threads are accessing the collection concurrently. Commonly Used Types: System.Collections.Concurrent.ConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue> System.Collections.Concurrent.ConcurrentQueue<T> System.Collections.Concurrent.ConcurrentBag<T> System.Collections.Concurrent.BlockingCollection<T> System.Collections.Concurrent.ConcurrentStack<T> When using NuGet 3.x this package requires at least version 3.4.

System.Collections.Immutable by: Microsoft

This package provides collections that are thread safe and guaranteed to never change their contents, also known as immutable collections. Like strings, any methods that perform modifications will not change the existing instance but instead return a new instance. For efficiency reasons, the implementation uses a sharing mechanism to ensure that newly created instances share as much data as possible with the previous instance while ensuring that operations have a predictable time complexity. The System.Collections.Immutable library is built-in as part of the shared framework in .NET Runtime. The package can be installed when you need to use it in other target frameworks.

System.Collections.NonGeneric by: Microsoft

Provides classes that define older non-generic collections of objects, such as lists, queues, hash tables and dictionaries. Developers should prefer the generic collections in the System.Collections package. Commonly Used Types: System.Collections.ArrayList System.Collections.Hashtable System.Collections.CollectionBase System.Collections.ReadOnlyCollectionBase System.Collections.Stack System.Collections.SortedList System.Collections.DictionaryBase System.Collections.Queue System.Collections.Comparer System.Collections.CaseInsensitiveComparer When using NuGet 3.x this package requires at least version 3.4.

System.Collections.Specialized by: Microsoft

Provides older specialized non-generic collections; for example, a linked list dictionary, a bit vector, and collections that contain only strings. Commonly Used Types: System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection System.Collections.Specialized.NameObjectCollectionBase System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection System.Collections.Specialized.IOrderedDictionary System.Collections.Specialized.HybridDictionary System.Collections.Specialized.OrderedDictionary System.Collections.Specialized.ListDictionary System.Collections.Specialized.StringDictionary System.Collections.Specialized.BitVector32 \r\n TFS ID: 1599443, GitHub SHA: https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/tree/eede273a4dfabcea608621f5e1bbf8ad00584cfb

System.ComponentModel.Annotations by: Microsoft

System.ComponentModel.Primitives by: Microsoft

Provides interfaces that are used to implement the run-time and design-time behavior of components. Commonly Used Types: System.ComponentModel.IComponent System.ComponentModel.IContainer System.ComponentModel.ISite System.ComponentModel.ComponentCollection When using NuGet 3.x this package requires at least version 3.4.

System.Composition by: Microsoft

Provides a version of the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF) that is lightweight and specifically optimized for high throughput scenarios, such as the web.

System.Composition.AttributedModel by: Microsoft

Provides the foundational attributes that allow you to declare parts for composition, such as imports, exports, and metadata with the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF).

System.Composition.Convention by: Microsoft

Provides types that support using Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF) with a convention-based configuration model.

System.Composition.Hosting by: Microsoft

Provides Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF) types that are useful to developers of extensible applications, or hosts.

System.Composition.Runtime by: Microsoft

Contains runtime components of the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF).

System.Composition.TypedParts by: Microsoft

Provides container configuration and some extension methods for the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF).

System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager by: Microsoft

Provides types that support using XML configuration files (app.config). This package exists only to support migrating existing .NET Framework code that already uses System.Configuration. When writing new code, use another configuration system instead, such as Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.

System.Console by: Microsoft

Provides the System.Console class, which represents the standard input, output and error streams for console applications. Commonly Used Types: System.Console System.ConsoleColor When using NuGet 3.x this package requires at least version 3.4.
