## 📚 Introduction
TaLibStandard is a modern interpretation of the widely used [TA-Lib](https://ta-lib.org), reimagined in C# 14. It is designed to be reliable, efficient, and user-friendly for developers performing financial market analysis. The addition of .NET's Generic Math feature allows for a richer, more flexible library that can handle a variety of number types.
## 🎯 Goal
The primary objective of TaLibStandard is to provide a comprehensive, feature-rich and accessible library for conducting technical analysis on financial market data.
## 🏁 Getting started
To get started with TaLibStandard, you can clone the repository and explore the examples provided in the `examples` directory. You can also refer to the list of [available functions](./docs/functions.md) in the documentation for a comprehensive overview of the library's capabilities.
## 📌 Features
* [x] Support for Double, Float, and Decimal data types, with the help of .NET's Generic Math
* [x] With some basic tests (coverage: >= 80%)
* [x] .NET Exception handling (BREAKING CHANGE)
### Roadmap (next features)
* [ ] Comprehensive API documentation that is easy to understand
* [ ] High-Level API for common use cases
* [ ] Support for more data types
* [ ] Support for more functions
* [ ] More tests
* [ ] More examples
* [ ] Add a Benchmark project
* [ ] Create a gRPC server to expose the library as a service
## 📄 Documentation
**TaLibStandard** provides a [COMPLETE DOCUMENTATION](https://github.com/phmatray/TaLibStandard/blob/main/docs/README.md) of the library.
All summaries are written in English. If you want to help us translate the documentation, please open an issue to
