Configuration Section Designer: A free/OSS Visual Studio add-in that allows you to graphically design .NET Configuration Sections and automatically generates all the required code and a schema definition (XSD) for them.

The Configuration Section Designer tool (Visual Studio add-in) facilitates the graphical design of the model for a .NET configuration file (app.config / web.config etc).

It generates the code that describes the model by leveraging the System.Configuration and ConfigurationManager capabilities of the .NET ecosystem.

The tool, documentation and source code can be found at http://csd.codeplex.com/
