### Code style
Below are a few pointers to which you may refer, but keep in mind this is not an exhaustive list:
- Use C# 9.0 features where possible
- Use C# 10.0 features where possible
- Try to ensure code is CLS-compliant. Where this is not possible, decorate methods with `CLSCompliantAttribute` and pass `false`
- Follow all .NET guidelines for naming conventions
- Follow all .NET guidelines and coding conventions.
See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/fundamentals/coding-style/coding-conventions
and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/design-guidelines/
- Make full use of XMLDoc and be thorough - but concise - with all documentation
- Ensure that no line exceeds 130 characters in length
- Do NOT include file headers in any form
- Declare `using` directives outside of namespace scope
- Avoid using exceptions for flow control where possible
- Use braces, even for single-statement bodies
- Use implicit type when the type is apparent or not important
- Use implicit type when the type is apparent
- Use explicit type otherwise
- Use U.S. English throughout the codebase and documentation
When in doubt, follow .NET guidelines for styling.

### Tests
When introducing a new extension method, you must ensure that you have also defined a unit test that asserts its correct behavior. The code style guidelines and code-analysis rules apply to the `X10D.Tests` equally as much as `X10D`, although documentation may be briefer. Refer to existing tests as a guideline.

### Disclaimer
In the event of a code style violation, a pull request may left open (or closed entirely) without merging. Keep in mind this does not mean the theory or implementation of the method is inherently bad or rejected entirely (although if this is the case, it will be outlined)
