SharpTrends

Requirements

However, your application will need to support .NET Standard 2.1. We recommend targeting the .NET 5.0 Framework.

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var client = new SharpTrends.Client();

            List<TrendingSearch> data = client.DailyTrends();
            
            foreach (var i in data)
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"{i.Title}:" +
                    $"\n\tDate:\t{i.Date}" +

                    $"\n\tRelated:\t{String.Join(", ", i.RelatedQueries)}" +
                    $"\n\tArticles:\t{i.Articles.Count}");
