Question 1

What is the NuGet Visualizer & Auditor?

Accepted Answer

It's a free online tool that parses your .csproj file, visualizes the NuGet dependency tree, and audits each package for security vulnerabilities, outdated versions, and license compliance.

Question 2

Do I need to sign up to use the tool?

Accepted Answer

No. The NuGet Auditor requires no signup, no login, and stores no personal data. Your .csproj content is parsed locally in your browser.

Question 3

How does the vulnerability scanning work?

Accepted Answer

The tool fetches vulnerability data from the NuGet v3 registration API, which includes GitHub Advisory database entries. Each declared package version is checked against the affected version ranges.

Question 4

Can I use this tool offline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The application is a Progressive Web App (PWA) with a service worker that caches the app shell for offline use. Live NuGet API data requires an internet connection.

Question 5

Is my data shared with anyone?

Accepted Answer

No. Audit data is isolated per-browser using a client ID. Shared audit links are opt-in and only accessible via the generated URL.
