    I've had some PRs open on hedgehog for one and two months respectively. It looks like the maintainer isn't currently very active, which is fair enough. This isn't about criticizing him, and I'm not trying to take over the repo.

    Haskell has QuickCheck and Hedgehog, and dotnet has both as well. F# is favored, but there's C# interop.
