FluentResults VS spectre.console

FluentResults

altmann/FluentResults: A generalised Result object implementation for .NET/C# (github.com)

Or maybe just start using Results as return type and get ValueOrDefault :) But when it comes to handling exceptions, I think it explodes there with ifs and processing IENumerables: https://github.com/altmann/FluentResults

But then again, simpler Results wrapper may be used perhaps. But it is a different way of coding and takes some mental shift on how to think about errors and distinguish between error results and true exceptions.

Yep, it's called result pattern, aforementioned above. There was two highlighted implementations - OneOf, FluentResults.

What does this library do better or differently than something like Fluent Results?

For C# particular - this project https://github.com/altmann/FluentResults

For example https://github.com/altmann/FluentResults is excellent if you want generic results

It's worth noting that there's also a library called FluentResults as an alternative to this one.

Interesting... I just found out that your first intention was to improve FluentResults but your PR got rejected which is a pity. PR: https://github.com/altmann/FluentResults/pull/80. I guess I will have a look at your library in hopes of removing some boilerplate code. Thanks!

I like this one for .NET https://github.com/spectreconsole/spectre.console which I found in this list https://github.com/shadawck/awesome-cli-frameworks.

The following code sample (a console project) uses Spectre.Console NuGet package to provide easy methods for gathering user input like first and last name of type string or perhaps birth date for a DateOnly property.

A friend and me have been working on an opinionated wrapper around the popular Spectre.Console. We call it SpectreCoff (Spectre.Console for F#).

Spectre.Console for enhanced console writting.

Add the NuGet package Spectre.Console to the project

By using open source library like Spectre.Console creating useful console applications easy. Spectre.Console also makes it easy to create dotnet tools, see documentation and check out their GitHub repository.
