The library for things that may or may not exist.
Existential is a utility library that contains parameter validation methods, a Maybe monad, and more. It can be used to work effectively with nulls, to efficiently resolve Code Analysis issues CA1062 and CA2000, to help generate a hash code, and to convert the names of generic types into a familiar string representation.
