CppSharp
Tools and libraries to glue C/C++ APIs to high-level languages
CppSharp is a tool and set of libraries that facilitates the usage of native C/C++ code with the .NET ecosystem. It consumes C/C++ header and library files and generates the necessary glue code to surface the native API as a managed API. Such an API can be used to consume an existing native library in your managed code or add managed scripting support to a native codebase. The supported target languages at present are C# and C++/CLI. It can also be used as a library to parse native code into a syntax tree with a rich declaration and type information model. Generates the glue binding code from a syntax tree of the native code. Provides APIs for parsing of C/C++ source code into a syntax tree. Mirrors the Clang's C/C++ AST and type system classes in C# APIs. -

Discord.Net
An unofficial .Net wrapper for the Discord API
Discord.Net is an asynchronous, multi-platform .NET Library used to interface with the Discord API. Nightlies are builds of Discord.NET that are still in an experimental phase, and have not been released. These are not included in the main repository and are instead taken over by Discord.NET Labs. Discord.NET Labs is an experimental fork of Discord.NET that implements the newest discord features for testing and development to eventually get merged into Discord.NET. A counterpart to the well-known command service of Discord.Net, the Interaction Framework implements the same feature-rich structure to register & handle interactions like application commands & buttons. Slash commands are purposed to take over the normal prefixed commands in Discord and come with good functionality to serve as a replacement. Being interactions, they are handled as SocketInteractions. Components of a message such as buttons and dropdowns, which can be interacted with and responded to. -

Entity Framework Plus
Entity framework plus extends your DbContext with must-haves features
Entity Framework Plus extends your DbContext with must-haves features, include filter, auditing, caching, query future, batch delete, batch update, and more. Deleting using Entity Framework Core can be very slow if you need to delete hundreds or thousands of entities. Entities are first loaded in the context before being deleted which is very bad for the performance and then, they are deleted one by one which makes the delete operation even worse. EF+ Batch Delete is the most efficient way to delete records. You drastically improve your application performance by removing the need to retrieve and load entities in your context and by performing a single database roundtrip instead of one for every record. Deletes multiples rows in a single database roundtrip and without loading entities in the context. Updates multiples rows using an expression in a single database roundtrip and without loading entities in the context. -

EventFlow
Async/await first CQRS+ES and DDD framework for .NET
Async/await first CQRS+ES and DDD framework for .NET. Designed with sensible defaults and implementations that make it easy to create an example application. EventFlow uses interfaces for every part of its core, making it easy to replace or extend existing features with custom implementation. To get a more complete example of how EventFlow could be used, have a look at the shipping example found here in the code base. The example is based on the shipping example from the book "Domain-Driven Design - Tackling Complexity in the Heart of Software" by Eric Evans. Its in-progress, but should provide inspiration on how to use EventFlow on a larger scale. If you have ideas and/or comments, create a pull request or an issue. The aggregate ID in EventFlow is represented as a value object that inherits from the IIdentity interface. You can provide your own implementation, but EventFlow provides a convenient implementation that will suit most needs. -

FluentMigrator
Fluent migrations framework for .NET
Fluent Migrator is a migration framework for .NET much like Ruby on Rails Migrations. Migrations are a structured way to alter your database schema and are an alternative to creating lots of sql scripts that have to be run manually by every developer involved. Migrations solve the problem of evolving a database schema for multiple databases (for example, the developer's local database, the test database and the production database). Database schema changes are described in classes written in C# that can be checked into a version control system. FluentMigrator is a .NET library that helps to version database schema using incremental migrations which are described in C#. The basic idea of the FAKE helper is to run FluentMigrator over the existing database using compiled assembly with migrations. -

MercuryMessaging
Framework to facilitate communication in the Unity game engine
The Mercury messaging toolkit is a new way to handle cross-component communication in the Unity game engine. It integrates seamlessly with the Unity Editor, and is both robust and expandable. It has been tested in Unity 2020 up until 2020.3.21f1, Unity 2019 up until 2019.2.17f1, Unity 2018 up until 2018.3.13f1, Unity 2017 up until 2017.4f1, and 5.6. The toolkit contains the Mercury messaging framework, which is a messaging and organizational framework built around the Mercury Protocol. Unity organizes its rendered scene objects (known in Unity as GameObjects) using a standard scene graph (known in Unity as the Scene Hierarchy). While Unity is very powerful, it is fairly difficult to achieve nonspatial communication between scriptable components of GameObjects (in Unity, known as MonoBehaviours). -

Microsoft Authentication Library .NET
Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) for .NET
MSAL.NET (Microsoft.Identity.Client) is an authentication library that enables you to acquire tokens from Azure AD, to access protected Web APIs (Microsoft APIs or applications registered with Azure Active Directory). MSAL.NET is available on several .NET platforms (Desktop, Universal Windows Platform, Xamarin Android, Xamarin iOS, Windows 8.1, and .NET Core). The MSAL library for .NET is part of the Microsoft identity platform for developers (formerly named Azure AD) v2.0. It enables you to acquire security tokens to call protected APIs. It uses industry-standard OAuth2 and OpenID Connect. The library also supports Azure AD B2C. Acquiring a token interactively enables the application to acquire a token after authenticating the user through an interactive sign-in. There are specificities, though depending on the platforms (Xamarin Android, Xamarin iOS, or UWP) -

MockHttp for HttpClient
Testing layer for Microsoft's HttpClient library
MockHttp is a testing layer for Microsoft's HttpClient library. It allows stubbed responses to be configured for matched HTTP requests and can be used to test your application's service layer. MockHttp defines a replacement HttpMessageHandler, the engine that drives HttpClient, that provides a fluent configuration API and provides a canned response. The caller (eg. your application's service layer) remains unaware of its presence. MockHttpMessageHandler defines both When and Expect, which can be used to define responses. They both expose the same fluent API, but each works in a slightly different way. Using When specifies a "Backend Definition". Backend Definitions can be matched against multiple times and in any order, but they won't match if there are any outstanding Request Expectations present (unless BackendDefinitionBehavior.Always is specified). -

NSubstitute
A friendly substitute for .NET mocking libraries
NSubstitute is designed for Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) testing, so you just need to arrange how it should work, then assert it received the calls you expected once you're done. Because you've got more important code to write than whether you need a mock or a stub. It is an attempt to satisfy our craving for a mocking library with a succinct syntax that helps us keep the focus on the intention of our tests, rather than on the configuration of our test doubles. We've tried to make the most frequently required operations obvious and easy to use, keeping less usual scenarios discoverable and accessible, and all the while maintaining as much natural language as possible. There are already some great mocking libraries around for .NET, so why create another? We found that for all their great features, none of the existing libraries had the succinct syntax we were craving — the code required to configure test doubles quickly obscured the intention behind our tests. -

NUnit 3 Framework
NUnit 3 Framework
NUnit is a unit-testing framework for all .Net languages. Initially ported from JUnit, the current production release, version 3, has been completely rewritten with many new features and support for a wide range of .NET platforms. NUnit is intended to be extensible. We can't do everything for everybody but we want to make it reasonably easy to extend NUnit. In many cases, users will be able to implement a special feature outside of our scope by simply creating a new attribute that embeds the required logic. In other cases, particularly in extending the engine, we rely on a plugin architecture. When running tests in a separate process, the console and gui runners make use of the NUnit Agent program, nunit-agent.exe. Although not directly run by users, nunit-agent does load and execute tests and users need to be aware of it, especially when debugging is involved. -

Nancy
Lightweight, low-ceremony, framework for building HTTP based services
Nancy is a lightweight, low-ceremony, framework for building HTTP-based services on .NET Framework/Core and Mono. The goal of the framework is to stay out of the way as much as possible and provide a super-duper-happy-path to all interactions. Nancy is designed to handle DELETE, GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, POST, PUT and PATCH requests and provides a simple, elegant, Domain Specific Language (DSL) for returning a response with just a couple of keystrokes, leaving you with more time to focus on the important bits.. your code and your application. Built from the bottom up, not simply a DSL on top of an existing framework. Removing limitations and feature hacks of an underlying framework, as well as the need to reference more assemblies than you need. keep it light. Run anywhere. Nancy is not built on any specific hosting technology can be run anywhere. Out of the box, Nancy supports running on ASP.NET/IIS, WCF, Self-hosting and any OWIN. -

Orleans
Orleans is a cross-platform framework for building distributed apps
Orleans builds on the developer productivity of .NET and brings it to the world of distributed applications, such as cloud services. Orleans scales from a single on-premises server to globally distributed, highly-available applications in the cloud. Orleans takes familiar concepts like objects, interfaces, async/await, and try/catch and extends them to multi-server environments. As such, it helps developers experienced with single-server applications transition to building resilient, scalable cloud services and other distributed applications. For this reason, Orleans has often been referred to as "Distributed .NET". It was created by Microsoft Research and introduced the Virtual Actor Model as a novel approach to building a new generation of distributed systems for the Cloud era. The core contribution of Orleans is its programming model which tames the complexity inherent to highly-parallel distributed systems without restricting capabilities or imposing onerous constraints.
