Why would you want this library?

If you want to programmatically read/write a ResX file, the standard is to use the System.Resources.ResXResourceReader and System.Resources.ResXResourceWriter. However these libraries are part of System.Windows.Forms.

This library separates those two classes from System.Windows.Forms and packages them for .Net Standard so you can easily include them across frameworks.

##Sources

This library is almost a direct copy of files from the open sourced winforms respository
