dnSpyEx vs rev.ng

dnSpyEx is an unofficial continuation of dnSpy, a debugger and .NET assembly editor for working with assemblies without source code. It can debug .NET Framework, .NET, and Unity game assemblies, with breakpoints, tracepoints, conditional breakpoints, exception breakpoints, and multiple-process debugging. Editing covers metadata and methods or classes in C# and Visual Basic, plus low-level IL method bodies. The project lists C# and Visual Basic decompilers using the ILSpy engine, along with a BAML decompiler and disassembler. Assembly search, class and method usage analysis, caller finding, bookmarks, and project export are also included. A public API supports extensions, and the C# Interactive window can control or script dnSpyEx. The latest stable release listed is v6.6.0, which adds a .NET 10 distribution. It is free under GPLv3. Release notes describe Wine compatibility adjustments for Linux, not native Linux support. Dynamic methods cannot be debugged because of CLR limitations.

rev.ng is a decompiler for reverse engineering that turns supported binaries into syntactically valid, standard-compliant C. Its data-structure recovery uses information across functions to identify linked lists, structs, arrays, and arrays of structs. The listed default architectures are x86, x86-64, ARM, AArch64, MIPS, and S390X; supported imports include ELF, PE/COFF, Mach-O, DWARF, PDB, and IDB. Users can define functions, edit prototypes, and rename items in YAML files, or interact through an HTTP API. The interface is described as available in a browser or standalone app, with cloud and standalone use offering the same experience. Collaborators can share a project URL; public projects include two collaborators. The rev.ng decompilation pipeline is Free Software, while the UI is intended for commercial cloud and standalone versions. The service is free and lists API, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows platforms. The site invites users to join a closed beta for the UI.
