Micro-framework for .NET console application. Cocona makes it easy and fast to build console applications on .NET. Cocona has a mechanism called Parameter set that defines common parameters for multiple commands. For example, if every command receives a user name, host name, etc., it would be annoying to define them in a method for each command. If a class (or record class) has a parameterized constructor, it is treated as part of the definition of a command method. Cocona has filter mechanism like ASP.NET Core's action filter. Filters allow custom processing before or after you run a command. If a constructor has parameters, Cocona injects an instance obtained from IServiceProvider into the parameter. Cocona provides support for shell command-line completion (also known as tab completion).
