Author's Note

This library grew out of my long-standing personal interest in structuring and publishing open source packages. Over time, I’ve revisited and refined earlier internal utilities and ideas, giving them a more consistent shape and preparing them for wider reuse. Along the way, I’ve also taken the opportunity to explore how open source distribution and licensing work in the .NET ecosystem.

It’s a small step toward something I’ve always wanted to try — sharing practical, minimal tools that reflect years of learning, experimentation, and refinement.

Hopefully, someone finds it useful.
