# Introduction
|
|
|
|
## Looking to get started?
|
|
|
|
Welcome! Before you dive into this library, however, you should have
|
|
some decent understanding of the language
|
|
you are about to use. This library touches on
|
|
[Task-based Asynchronous Pattern] \(TAP), [polymorphism], [interface]
|
|
and many more advanced topics extensively. Please make sure that you
|
|
understand these topics to some extent before proceeding. With all
|
|
that being said, feel free to visit us on Discord at the link below
|
|
if you have any questions!
|
|
|
|
An official collection of samples can be found
|
|
in [our GitHub repository].
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> Please note that you should *not* try to blindly copy paste
|
|
> the code. The examples are meant to be a template or a guide.
