Add support for Angular (TypeScript) for Front-End Code & Architecture Analysis
NDepend is a great tool for our .NET Core C# Back-End code analysis. It would be very nice if the new version would support the Front-End framework such as Angular (TypeScript) as well.

See suppressed issue justification in query result view
When using the SuppressMessageAttribute, the suppressed issues are grouped in the query result view. It would be very useful to also see the suppression ‘Justification’. Perhaps add a column so we could group by justification? Thanks.

Augmented reality for NDepend
The ndepend tool is for profound users, to make it closer to ordinary people I suggest incorporating some elements of augmented reality (like this https://jasoren.com/logistics/)

Maybe I did not found it in the settings but, if not available, an option to approve or disable error reports send from NDepend to http://www.ndepend.com/ErrorLog.aspx as it includes a lot of data would be helpfull

A 'Hound' like product for .Net projects
I recently ran across a new project called 'Hound' http://robots.thoughtbot.com/introducing-hound that help developers fight the smaller code quality issues by commenting on github pull requests. This made me think of NDepend as a Service and would be a nice way to integrate NDepend into my workflow - by simply commenting on offending lines of a pull request a team could start to have an automated way of having the team fix things that might otherwise be missed. I really like how hound talks about removing the 'human' from some of the littler issues.
I could see this starting out as…

New to NDepend
Please make the setup a bit easier to understand. I am a new user for Ndepend and i spent 30 mins trying to create a dependency graph of a existing project and in the end just gave up!

Update the GUI look and feel to a WPF + responsive GUI
- The usage/look/feel is kind of clunky, with so miscellaneous delays and microadjustments, which make it feel slow.
- Several panels are having a 'not really adapted' display.
- A responsive display and adjustments would be much welcome.
- Adding a smart column adjustment (put the mouse cursor between two column titles, the cursor becomes a left-right double arrow, then double click will make the collumn adjust to minimum width without cutting the largest row) would be much welcome.

IVisualStudioManager.GetAssembliesFromVisualStudioSolutionOrProject(IAbsoluteFilePath visualStudioSolutionOrProjectFilePath) not working.
Our Requirement:
1) Developer should be able to find the dependencies of any selected assembly or file (class level) in the solution.
2) Integrate to build system. The tool should check for allowed/disallowed dependencies. The build should fail if there are disallowed dependencies.Our Approach:
To satisfy the above mentioned, we tried to extend the NDepend.PowerTools by creating a new tool in the same solution.
In the tool class, we tried to use nDepend dlls to get the dependencies of all assemblies/classes in the solution. The input for the tool is the solution file.Problem we faced:
After selecting our…1 vote -

Improve management of rules shared between projects
In addition to sharing custom rules between projects I want to be able to enable/disable rules among all my projects. I currently have 5 active ND projects, so if I want to turn off, for instance, "Nested types should not be visible" for all my projects, I have to go uncheck it in each project. Every time I tweak my rules, I have to go repeat these tweaks in all my ND projects.
Some sort of meta-project rules management would be an enormous effort saver.
In addition, once a set of "standard rules" are decided upon, it would be nice…1 vote -

Be able to run R# "refactor"-commands based a NDepend query result
Query code base in order to modify.
ReSharper is best in facilitating refactoring.
NDepend is best in facilitating code analysis and locating pieces of code.Solution: integrate the ReSharper and NDepend in any suitable way.

Add a minimal deployment option for build agents
Although admittedly NDepend isn't a huge product, it would be helpful if there was a secondary deployment option which was just NDepend.Console.exe and its dependencies. No GUI tools, power tools, integration extensions etc. Just the absolute basics so that you can easy stick it on a build agent or in SCC as part of a tools folder without including stuff that a build agent would never use.
Of course, this now has its own problems as v7 seems to use an activation model whereas with v6 you could just include the license file to your agents. (Not to mention the…

Show rules violated by code elements in VS code editor and update status live
A visual indicator indicates in the VS code editor for each code element (method, field, type, namespace) if it violates one or several rules.
From this visual indicator it is possible to jump to the code rule(s) violated)
The rule status would be updated asynchronously after 2 to 5 seconds (depending on the size of the code base) each time the user types and reach a compilable status.
