Description
In 9.0.300 and onwards the dotnet CLI added several new noun-first command (dotnet package add) for existing verb-first forms (dotnet add package). This was done based on significant user feedback about mixing up commands, since the majority of the subcommand-based commands in the SDK were noun-first.
In addition, many other CLIs that users interact with as part of their work have conditioned them to expect noun-first grammars.
Specifically, the following new forms are available:
- dotnet package list
- dotnet reference list
- dotnet package add
- dotnet reference add
- dotnet package remove
- dotnet reference remove
The existing, verb-first forms of these commands have not been removed - they remain functional and will not be removed in the near future. We may add a notification message to their use informing users about the new noun-first forms like we've done for the older dotnet new subcommands (picture below).
