> I worked on MonoGame.Extended for nearly 5 years and unfortunately my heart is no longer in it. I've given this decision a lot of thought and I strongly believe handing the project over to someone who will give it the love it deserves will be best for everyone.

We're in the process of developing MonoGame.Extended 3.6!

|

There may be some confusion, pain and disruption for a while. Here's what you need to know:
|
||||
|
||||
- Everything that used to be in the `develop` branch is now in `master`
|
||||
- NuGet packages built from `master` have been [published to nuget.org as version 1.1](https://www.nuget.org/packages?q=monogame.extended)
|
||||
- There's lots of breaking changes happening to create a cleaner more useful API
|
||||
- From now on we're going to (attempt) to use [Git Flow](https://gitversion.readthedocs.io/en/latest/git-branching-strategies/gitflow/)
|
||||
- We're now using [cake builds](https://cakebuild.net/) so that you can build everything (including the NuGet packages) locally
|
||||
- We're migrating everything to [.NET Standard!](https://www.patreon.com/posts/one-library-to-18916187)

- Choose the features you like and the rest stays out of your way.

- A clean and consistent API familiar to MonoGame developers.

||||
- It's *not* a game engine, but extends the framework.
|
||||
- Follow [C# coding guidelines](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229002(v=vs.110).aspx).
