Hi JT,
I am indeed working on a .NET 5+ port of Excel-DNA.
So far I’ve found it more frustrating than expected, but there are no showstoppers that I know at this point.
It’s still hard for me to tell whether there are major issues ahead.
I would hope to start testing with some test users in the next few months.
I haven’t seen anything major in the .NET 6 planning that affects the Excel-DNA support.
If this is very urgent or a high priority for you, you are welcome to contact me directly.

Hi Ali,
Could you explain a bit why you are eager to move to .NET 5?
Is it just that other projects are moving to .NET 5 or are there specific features you want to use in your Excel-DNA add-in?

Hi Matthew,
We are currently working on support for Excel-DNA under .NET 6.
I’m not sure how close we are to a public test version, but it looks like it will work fine.
But you can see – and if you’re brave even try – the progress here: Commits · Excel-DNA/ExcelDna (github.com)
You can also support the Excel-DNA project by signing up as a GitHub sponsor: Sponsor @Excel-DNA on GitHub Sponsors
That helps fund the development work and encourages ongoing efforts to keep the project up-to-date.
