Description

It is this page.

The link in this line for '.NET' does not work? It goes to this page Looks like I can make my own :-)

The MIEngine project follows a similar developer guide to .NET. 

All links to .Net Foundation Coding Guidelines give a 404 error

Finally .NET code formatter tool latest build (binary release) does not work (missing dependencies or dlls). Not MIEngines problem really but I wasn't sure what to do. Perhaps recommend a version to use? I just use the VStudio 2017 and its defaults and never use unicode in string literals. Maybe code formatter should have been an extension built into VStudio

Issues that affect ~10 people on the planet outside MS, but pointing them out.

Research direction

Open the MIEngine wiki's “Contributing Code” page and verify the .NET and .NET Foundation Coding Guidelines links reported here. Confirm what guidance can be given for the .NET code formatter's missing dependencies, then update the page so the links work and the formatter recommendation is clear.
