What tools or libraries help you enforce SOLID principles in .NET code?
Short answer: Resharper: Provides code analysis and refactoring hints. SonarQube / SonarCloud: Analyzes code quality and reports SOLID violations. FxCop / Roslyn analyzers: Provide static analysis with custom rules. NDepend: Deep architecture and dependency analysis tool. StyleCop: Enforces coding style which indirectly helps maintain SOLID code.
Real-world example (ShopNest)
Open/Closed in ShopNest: add a new payment method by adding a class, not by editing a giant switch in CheckoutService.
