Research direction
The issue requests making VB script compilation APIs public. Search the Roslyn codebase for VB compilation APIs, likely in the features/VBScript or compilation directories. Examine the existing public API for C# compilation to understand the pattern. The issue lacks details and is from 2015 with no activity; newcomers should first understand the compiler architecture and consider opening a discussion to clarify scope.
