SkyAPM C#/.NET instrument agent

SkyAPM-dotnet is a community, open-source C#/.NET auto-instrumentation agent for the .NET ecosystem. It provides distributed tracing, application topology, and metrics for ASP.NET Core and .NET applications, and reports the collected telemetry to an Apache SkyWalking backend over the sw8 / v8 protocol. It is an independent project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Apache Software Foundation.
