Hi, I have a friend who is working on their end project with C #. It tells me that it works to code a software of recording and reading of piece of music through a file of extensions customize. My question is how I can read a custom extension file with the program. For example if I write a text file the program will save it with the .dev extension and then it can read it.

What I have tried:

Is there an example project or source code like that?

All you have to do is understand the file format and write code to read that format. There's tons of different serialization and deserialization examples all over the web as well as reading/writing text and what people call binary data files.
