+# Notes about development in this repository
+
+Please contribute any notes that made your contributions easier here.
+
+Note that historically, the bulk of the development occured on Windows before dotnet got cross platform, for now, the tooling to target .NET Framework is still required for some areas.
+
+# Notes about the Paket F# Interactive extension
+
+Some pointers to help efforts to foster the F# Interactive extension ecosystem:
+
+* integrations in IDEs:
+  * Rider: take inspiration from [how Rider does autocomplete for nuget package in `#r "nuget: "`](https://github.com/JetBrains/resharper-fsharp/pull/539)
+  * Ionide setting to [use FSAC path to pass as an extra `--compilertool:` argument to FSI](https://github.com/ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp/pull/1959)
+  * Proposal to [ship the paket extension with FSAC](https://github.com/fsharp/FsAutoComplete/pull/1198)
+* keeping the documentation refering to the extensions mechanism in shape:
+  * [F# Interactive options](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/fsharp/language-reference/fsharp-interactive-options)
+  * [F# Interactive options](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/fsharp/language-reference/fsharp-interactive-options)
+  * [Paket extension documentation](https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/blob/master/docs/content/fsi-integration.md)
+  * [Documentation about extensions (https://aka.ms/dotnetdepmanager)](https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/blob/main/src/FSharp.DependencyManager.Nuget/README.md)
+* Discussion about a [stable location / mechanism so extensions are loaded in a single place by all tooling and variants of F# Interactive](https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/issues/8880)
+
+# Updates to support new major SDK releases
+
+This is overall a stress free process, you can take example on previous PRs:
+
+* [dotnet 8](https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/pull/4219)
+* [dotnet 7](https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/pull/4219](https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/commit/c6e1bd1b67f26ce29417cd853425ccf33fc067c0)
+* [dotnet 6](https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/pull/4013)
+* [dotnet 4.8.1](https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/pull/4227)
