Usage
The lib can be used in two ways: as a shared or internal lib.
Shared
You can add the lib as a dependency.
❗ Not published on Nexus yet.
Internal
You can include a full or partial copy of the lib only with features you need in your mod.
To prevent conflicts with other mods and / or shared lib, you must give your copy a unique namespace.
For example, you can simply use your mod's namespace or prepend with it: Codeware → MyMod.Codeware.
