Icecream / .NET 8
About Icecream
A small .NET library for keeping reusable instructions and documents separate from the applications that consume them.
Why documents?
Business-specific text and projection rules often become embedded in application code. Icedocs put that material into readable templates with substitutions, branches, loops and includes. A host that loads templates dynamically can change the projected content without recompiling the renderer.
What exists today
The implementation targets .NET 8. ProjectionEngine parses a template, resolves values from a model and returns text. It includes formatting filters and a resolver interface. It does not include a graph database, workflow scheduler, AI integration or execution service.
Start with the C# guide, try complete examples, or consult the implementation reference.
The wider architecture
Skyebase describes a graph of facts and a lattice of reusable icedocs consumed by engines and agents. Icecream provides the projection layer within that architecture and can also be used independently by another .NET application.
