When a Nuget package is added, where are the stuff added located?

In Visual Studio 2019 I added a Nuget package, Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Google version 3.14. The only visible change I can find is an extra line in <ItemGroup> in the .csproj file.

Where is the code of the package located?

How is version control impacted if my project is checked into TFS?

The packages are in your build folder ie. bin/debug or bin/release

NuGet packages are typically omitted from source control repositories and are restored with project dependencies before a build.

Nugets are saved under :

  • {project-root}\bin\{debug-release}\{target-framework}
  • {project-root}\obj\{debug-release}\{target-framework}

Additionally all nugets are cashed under below folder for future use :

  • %UserProfile%/.nuget/packages
