I don't like regex, so I wrote this
There's a C# version as part of language-ext

Copilot regurgitating Quake code, including sweary comments
It would certainly alleviate the license concerns. If it was possible to train it to a level (that produces effective output), then sure.
As a thought experiment, I thought "what would happen if we trained it on our 15 million lines of product code + my language-ext project". It would almost certainly produce something that looks like 'us'.
But it would also:
* Trip over a million or so lines of generated code and maybe start parroting that
* 'See' some of the extreme optimisations I've had to built into language-ext to make it performant. Something like the internals of the CHAMP hash-map data-structure [1]. That code is hideously ugly, but it's done for a good reason. I wouldn't want to see optimised code parroted out upfront. Maybe it wouldn't pick up on it, because it hasn't got a consistent shape like the majority of the code? Who knows.
Still, I'd be more willing to allow my team to use it if I could train it myself.

Functional Programming in C# 9 by Simon Painter @ Func Prog Sweden
If going the C# route I strongly recommend LanguageExt (Simo Painter talks about it a bit in the video). The wiki is great, and if you go on the GitHub issues there's a lot of good explanation of some other concepts. The Enrico Buonanno book (Functional Programming in C#) is great as well, although I haven't read the second edition yet.

F# career advice
I ran into similar issues when using C# for functional programming, but I found this library language-ext, which provides options and a bunch of other FP goodies

I created library that provides missing features in C# from Rust
Nice job! Looks similar to functional concept of Option and Result existing in F#. There are some libs trying to port them into c#: https://github.com/louthy/language-ext https://github.com/vkhorikov/CSharpFunctionalExtensions

Funk -> Functional programming library for C#
Why would I use this over the pretty well established library https://github.com/louthy/language-ext ? Not trying to break down your work, just genuinely asking.
- Biggest features you miss from other languages?

Why Haskell is our first choice for building production software systems
Most of those languages also have (varying degrees of) serious FP work that can be achieved in them. https://github.com/louthy/language-ext for c# is pretty damn comprehensive.
