Welcome to the $\text{\color{orange}Download \color{gray}Assistant \color{orange}Wiki}$!

This Wiki provides comprehensive documentation on how to utilize the Download Assistant and its functionalities. It also includes examples demonstrating the assistant's usage in a Console Application with C#.

All examples are implemented using .Net 6 and Visual Studio 2022.

  • Automatic Retries and Throttling:
