Description
Describe the feature you'd like
I cannot for the life of me find out how to create new C# projects under an existing solution. Given the absolutely garbage state of the extension right now, I'm inclined to believe the feature was removed with the solution explorer
Alternatives considered
Abandoning VS Code
Uninstalling the extension in favor of one that has basic C# development features
Keeping a local version of an old build that still had the solution explorer

Research direction
The request concerns the solution explorer's context-menu actions for creating projects, but it names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing solution explorer and project-creation commands, then verify how context-menu actions are registered. Done means a user can create a new C# Class Library inside an existing solution from that menu.
