Named Pipes in .NET 6 with Tray Icon and Service
I think this is the first NamedPipes tutorial in C# that I've ever seen that doesn't do things completely wrong by using a StreamWriter or StreamReader. Of course, that's because it uses another library that wraps all the tricky bits of NamedPipes that everybody always does wrong -> https://github.com/HavenDV/H.Pipes
NamedPipes are sweet for doing same-machine IPC on Windows, that is for sure, but the built-in API is full of footguns.
