Check if an instance of T is a default(T) IsDefault() method
Concept Types Documentation
Expression Trees covering additional language constructs, i.e. foreach, await, patterns, multi-line lambda expressions Metaprogramming
Async Locks Documentation
High-performance general purpose Write-Ahead Log Persistent Log
Memory-mapped file as Memory<byte> MemoryMappedFileExtensions

Quick overview of additional features:

All these things are implemented in 100% managed code on top of existing .NET API without modifications of Roslyn compiler or CoreFX libraries.
