SolrNet is an Apache Solr client for .NET
SolrNet does not attempt to abstract much over Solr, it's assumed that you know what Solr is and how to use it, just as you need to know relational databases before using an ORM.
If you're not familiar with Solr, take your time to follow the Solr tutorial, see the FAQ and the docs. Consider getting a book.
It's currently recommended to get the latest binaries directly from the build server. .

If you have questions about Solr itself (i.e. not specifically about SolrNet) use the Solr mailing list.
Paul Bouwer has written an excellent guide for contributors starting from scratch (no previous Git knowledge required).
In a nutshell:
- Don't worry about code formatting, styles, etc.
- Tests are a must. Without tests, changes will not be merged, except for very specific cases.
- Whenever possible, favor immutable classes and pure code.
- If you're adding a new feature or making a breaking change, update the corresponding documentation.
- SolrNet has recently adopted using Gitflow workflow as its branching strategy, whenever you contribute please from your fork create a pull request with a branch that is up to date. Once confirmed, it will be merged and a new version will be released.
