In addition to that, it's meant to be run on servers or other desktop-less machines and features full cross-OS support, which makes it possible to launch on any operating system with .NET Core runtime, such as Windows, Linux, and macOS. ASF is possible thanks to the gigantic amount of work done in the marvelous SteamKit2 library.

Harmony
Patching, replacing and decorating .NET and Mono methods
Harmony gives you an elegant and high-level way to alter the functionality in applications written in C#. It works great in games and is well established in titles like 7 Days To Die, BattleTech, Besiege, Cities:Skylines, Kerbal Space Program, Oxygen Not Included, Ravenfield, Rimworld, Sheltered, Stardew Valley, Staxel, Subnautica, The Ultimate Nerd Game, Total Miner, Unturned, SCP: Secret Laboratory and many more. If you develop in C# and your code is loaded as a module/plugin into a host application, you can use Harmony to alter the functionality of all the available assemblies of that application. Where other patch libraries simply allow you to replace the original method, Harmony goes one step further. It is also used in unit testing WPF controls and in many other areas. Installation is done by using 0Harmony.dll in your project or by using the Lib.Harmony nuget package. -
