Building the libraries
Net48 targets
Every library comes with its project for the Microsoft Visual Studio IDE (.sln and .csproj) in a subdirectory named net48.
Projects have been created with Visual Studio 2017, then updated with Visual Studio 2019, and finally have updated with Visual Studio 2022.
Building from the command line is easy using MSBUILD.EXE. Use the BUILD-NET48.CMD file at the root to build all the projects in a row.
Net60 targets
Every library comes with its project for the Microsoft Visual Studio IDE (.sln and .csproj) in a subdirectory named net60.
Projects have been created with Visual Studio 2022.
Building from the command line is easy using DOTNET.EXE. Use the BUILD-NET60.CMD file at the root to build all the projects in a row.

Pre-compiled binaries are regularly released on github.com/springcard/springcard-dotnet-libraries/releases.
