Useful additions to the .NET Framework and:
-
Fill gaps in existing libraries and provide other useful utilities that compliment core functionality, not provide abstractions or alternative APIs.
-
Get equivalent features added to the existing libraries. Though, we understand the likelyhood of that happening for many of the features is low (especially the global ones).
- akarnokd's Reactive Extensions - More reactive extensions
- AsyncEx - A helper library for async/await
- Enums.NET - Like
Enum
, but better (Rejected Runtime Proposal) - Humanizer - String formatting done right
- Interactive Extensions - Familiar "reactive extensions" for
IEnumerable
- MoreLINQ - All the LINQ you could ask for
- MoreRx - More reactive extensions
- NodaTime - A better date and time API
- Rxx - More reactive extensions (Outdated)
We'll only consider contributions in the spirit of the goals (e.g. the feature fills gaps in an existing library and could be considered useful to a large portion of people).
