NamtiraLib is a shared .NET class library written in Visual Basic. It started as a handful of extension methods—the kind of small conveniences that .NET almost provides but never quite does—and has grown into a collection of modules, classes, and custom controls that any WinForms application can reference.

The library is organized into several tiers, each building on the one before it, each documented in the pages listed below.

The modules in this section extend .NET's built-in types with everyday operations that are either missing or unnecessarily verbose. Because the rest of NamtiraLib depends on them, they live here in their own folder.
