Access `.csproj` attributes from C# in .NET Core

My .csproj file contains:

...
<PackageId>MyProject</PackageId>
<Version>1.0.0</Version>
...

How can I access that from my project's code?

To access version and more general properties of your project use: GetCustomAttribute<T>()

Use AssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute as type T to retrieve the Version property.

For other values for T, see the attributes listed on https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.reflection?view=netcore-2.0

Example: typeof(Startup).GetTypeInfo().Assembly.GetCustomAttribute<AssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute>().InformationalVersion
