It's also probably a fine start for other .NET projects (have at it, but change the license). It contains the correct license, a decent README, and initial project structure (including a standard .gitignore for the Visual Studio family of products). You can learn more about the project from the project [Documentation](Documentation). ## Using New Repo You can simply `git clone` this project to get started. It is recommended that you don't preserve history of the project (it isn't generally meaningful) for your repo, but make a copy and `git init` your project from source. Consult [CHECKLIST.md](CHECKLIST.md) for helpful suggestions on preparing your repo to go public. ## Building You don't "build" New Repo, however, this will be meaningful for many other projects. ## Contributing See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for information on contributing to this project.
