Features

  • For .NET 8 and newer TFMs CliRunner is dependency free ^1
  • Support for specific specializations such as running executables or commands via Windows Powershell or CMD on Windows ^2
  • SourceLink support

Why use CliRunner over CliWrap?

  • No hidden or additional licensing terms are required beyond the source code license
  • No imported C code - This library is entirely written in C#
  • No lock in regarding Piping support
