This project is partly based on a much older project of mine called, MBG Extensions Library, which I wrote back in 2010. There is an article on CodeProject of which large portions are still applicable to Extenso.Core and parts of Extenso.Data. In any case, Extenso aims to be more than just an extensions library - various other helper classes will be added in separate packages, so you can pick and choose what you like.

Documentation can be found here: https://gordon-matt.github.io/Extenso/
