DKNet

Core Framework

The Core Framework provides foundational utilities and extensions that support all other DKNet components. These cross-cutting concerns are essential for building robust, maintainable applications.

Components

• DKNet.Fw.Extensions - Framework-level extensions and utilities

Architecture Role

The Core Framework sits at the foundation of the DKNet architecture, providing cross-cutting concerns that are used across all layers:

Key Features

Foundation Services

• Extension Methods: Comprehensive set of extension methods for common .NET types
• Type System Utilities: Advanced type checking and manipulation utilities
• Dependency Injection: Enhanced service registration and keyed service support

Design Principles

The Core Framework follows these key principles:

1. Non-intrusive: Extensions that don’t change existing behavior
2. Performance-oriented: Optimized implementations for common operations
3. Dependency-minimal: Minimal external dependencies to reduce coupling
4. Cross-platform: Compatible across different .NET platforms
5. Testable: All components are easily testable and mockable
