https://try.dot.net under maintenance

[jonsequitur]

The old try.dot.net site is in the process of being redirected to https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/try-dotnet, which provides more context and information about Try .NET.

Until the automatic redirect is in place, you can go directly to https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/try-dotnet and use the Try .NET editor there, which now supports C# 12.

I have used https://try.dot.net many times in recent years to quickly validate my assumptions about how basic things worked in C# (e.g. what is the result of 0 < (int?)null ?). The new site informs me about interesting features that would be useful if I were sharing content, but it is distinctly worse as a C# sandbox. Is there a replacement full-screen C# sandbox that I should use instead? Or should I host my own?

I've passed this feedback along.

We would like to make Try .NET easier to host and customize, and the latest updates have moved it in that direction. But currently hosting your own is pretty non-trivial.

Another quick experimentation option of course is Polyglot Notebooks.

This should be resolved. We are waiting for a day, and then will close out the issue.
