About Elevate

Elevate is an easy to pick up library containing things you wish were in the BCL. Use one component or many. Contribute your own utilities. Help us make Boost for .NET.

Elevate is developed in C#. Currently, we're focused on adding concepts from functional languages.

What Is Elevate?

See this blog post for a high level introduction to Elevate:

Introducing Elevate.

Once you have the basics down, read through the source of the "Elevate.Guide" project. This project contains behavior/specification style tests written specifically to introduce new users to Elevate. Our goal is for someone with no prior knowledge of Elevate to be able to get started in minutes by reading through the Guide.

Either way, thank you for checking out Elevate!

Elevate + LINQ + NHibernate == Greatness. I'll surely keep an eye on this project.

This is nothing like Boost. Shouldn't be spamming the name Boost for something like this.
