MySQL provides connectivity for client applications developed in .NET compatible programming languages with Connector/NET.

MySQL Connector/NET is a library compatible with .NET Framework and .NET Core, for specific versions see MySQL Connector/NET Versions. The driver is a pure C# implementation of the MySQL protocol and does not rely on the MySQL client library.

From MySQL Connector/NET 8.1, the driver contains an implementation of OpenTelemetry which requires the use of the MySql.Data.OpenTelemetry Nuget package to enable the generation of telemetry data.

From MySQL Connector/NET 8.2, the driver adds support for WebAuthn authentication, the driver also adds support for .NET 8.

From MySQL Connector/NET 8.3, the driver also adds support for .NET 8 and EFCore 8 GA versions.
