A C# library providing functional programming extensions, including Result and Maybe monads, value objects, and fluent method chaining. It helps C# developers write more functional code by making errors and nulls explicit.

Use cases

• handle errors without exceptions in C#
• eliminate null reference exceptions with Maybe type
• avoid primitive obsession with value objects
• chain operations in a functional pipeline
• implement railway-oriented programming in .NET
• make method failure states explicit in C#

When to choose

• you write C# and want Result/Maybe types for explicit error handling
• you want to reduce null checks and exceptions in .NET code
• you prefer fluent, composable operation chains over imperative control flow

When to avoid

• your team is unfamiliar with functional programming concepts
• you work outside the .NET/C# ecosystem
• you need a full functional programming language rather than extensions
