The .NET library for ImageMagick: Magick.NET
ImageMagick is a powerful image manipulation library that supports over 100 major file formats (not including sub-formats). With Magick.NET you can use ImageMagick in your C#/VB.NET/.NET Core application without having to install ImageMagick on your server or desktop.

Extra libraries
Besides the quantum specific packages there are also some extra libraries in this project. One of these libraries is the Magick.NET.Core library that is a dependency of the quantum specific packages. This library can be used to add extra functionality and interact with the Magick.NET libraries. Two examples are Magick.NET.SystemDrawing and Magick.NET.SystemWindowsMedia that can be used to interact with System.Drawing and System.Windows.Media.
Development build
Every commit to Magick.NET is automatically build and tested with the help of GitHub Actions. This build also includes the creation of a NuGet package. These packages can be downloaded here: https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET/actions. It is not recommended to use this build in a production environment.
Versioning
Magick.NET uses semantic versioning.
