The official OPC Foundation OPC UA .NET StandardLibrary Stack and sample applications.
Donated to the community for development of OPC UA applications and to assure that OPC UA becomes the defacto-standard technology for the Industrial-Internet-of-Things and Industrie 4.0.
Numerous products, organizations, and other standards-bodies rely on OPC UA as their communications back-bone, with more joining daily.

Stack: Is in the responsibility of the OPC Foundation and working groups. It will be extended and modified to match the OPC UA specification.
OPC Foundation appointed contractors are responsible for assuring a reasonable quality, including bug-fixes and enhancements at the direction of the OPC Foundation as well as contributions from the community.
The stack is regularly tested with other applications, the OPC Compliance Test Tool, and at various Interoperability Workshops.
Sample Libraries/Applications: Are provided to the community for further enhancement.
This repository includes the UA .NET Stack sample libraries and sample applications, all based on the .NET StandardLibrary. The
UA .NET StandardLibrary Stack follows a dual-license:
RCL enables OPC Foundation members to deploy their applications using the software without being required to disclose the application code. Non-members licensed under GPL 2.0 must disclose their application code when using the software.
If OPC Foundation Corporate Membership is terminated, the licence reverts to GPL 2.0 whenever any fixes or updates published on GitHub are applied to the former member’s application. This includes updates acquired by fetching any Git commit made after membership termination or the use of binaries distributed in OPC NuGet packages that were posted after the membership termination date.
Note: Dual license applies to this repository only; GPL 2.0 applies to all other repositories
All samples, the platform layers, and files generated with the ModelCompiler by means of the OPC UA NodeSet are provided under the MIT license.
The UA .NET and UA .NET Standard Stack include an OPC UA stack and a number of Sample Applications.
UA .NET Standard Stack is developed in C# using .NET StandardLibrary making it deployable for multiple platforms.
Detailed information about OPC UA can be found in the
Specifications:
All code within this repository contains in-line annotation used for generating developer documentation describing the interfaces, objects, properties, methods, and events, etc.
Additional documentation to help newcomers is provided in the 'Getting Started' section, below.
Learn how to build compliant self-describing applications using Profiles:
See the following help resources:
The sample applications require the CertificateGenerator application which is tracked in the Misc-Tools repository.
Instructions:
The OPC Foundation recommends the use of Certified products only.
This code is provided with 2 Lab Certified applications:
Lab certification means that an OPC UA product was tested in a sanctioned Lab and successfully demonstrated compliance, interoperability, robustness/recovery, and resource efficiency. Certified products are ready for production use. Learn more.
Products built from this source code are not
inherently certified.

more about certifying your product(s).
The OPC Foundation encourages community participation in the enhancement of the UA .NET Standard Stack.
The OPC Foundation contains multiple working groups that work hard to deliver OPC Specifications, Sample Applications, Compliance Test Tools, and more. Your participation can help steer OPC UA technology. Get involved today!
