IronSoftware, a leading provider of developer-focused .NET components, today announced a series of innovations that strengthen its position as a key enabler of modern, cross-platform .NET development. Building on the success of IronPDF, the company is expanding its portfolio with libraries that bring Linux-style workflows and curl-powered HTTP automation directly into .NET applications.
These new tools are designed to help developers ship faster, reduce boilerplate, and bridge the gap between traditional scripting workflows and production-grade .NET code.
CurlDotNet: From Terminal to C# in One Paste
Curl DotNet allows developers to take an existing curl command and paste it straight into .NET code, without manually translating it into HttpClient syntax or rewriting complex request logic.
Instead of spending time converting headers, authentication, and payloads by hand, developers can reuse the curl commands they already know and trust. CurlDotNet handles the parsing and execution inside managed .NET code, returning results that can be consumed by applications, services, and automation scripts.
This directly benefits teams that:
- Prototype API calls in the terminal and want to move them into production quickly.
- Integrate with third-party REST APIs on a regular basis.
- Maintain large collections of curl snippets for internal services and tools.
With CurlDotNet, infrastructure engineers, backend developers, and DevOps teams can now unify these workflows inside .NET, reducing friction between experimentation and implementation.
UserlandDotNet: Linux-Style Power for Cross-Platform .NET
UserlandDotNet is designed for developers who work across platforms and want the expressiveness and flexibility of Linux-style workflows inside .NET. By bringing familiar command-line-inspired capabilities into managed code, UserlandDotNet helps developers:
- Build automation that feels like scripting, but runs with the reliability of compiled .NET.
- Work comfortably on Windows, Linux, and macOS with consistent patterns.
- Take advantage of “Linux superpowers” while staying firmly in the .NET ecosystem.
As .NET increasingly powers cloud-native applications, containers, and microservices, many teams deploy to Linux or mixed environments. UserlandDotNet supports this shift by giving developers tooling that feels native in these environments while still benefiting from the performance, security, and tooling ecosystem of modern .NET.
IronPDF: A Recognized “Hidden Gem” in the .NET Ecosystem
Alongside these new tools, IronSoftware continues to invest heavily in IronPDF, its flagship PDF library for .NET. IronPDF is widely recognized as a powerful, developer-friendly solution for:
- Converting HTML to PDF using modern rendering.
- Generating complex, styled PDFs for reports, invoices, and documents.
- Merging, splitting, and editing PDFs at scale.
- Filling forms, adding signatures, and stamping content.
- Extracting text and images, and integrating with OCR workflows.
IronPDF supports the latest .NET versions and is designed with production workloads in mind. Teams building internal tools, SaaS platforms, financial systems, and document-heavy applications rely on IronPDF to handle both everyday and advanced PDF operations.
The continued recognition of IronPDF as a “hidden gem” among .NET libraries underlines IronSoftware’s broader mission: to remove undifferentiated complexity so developers can focus on building value, not infrastructure. More information about IronPDF is available at IronPDF.com.
Empowering Modern .NET Teams
Across CurlDotNet, UserlandDotNet, IronPDF, and the rest of its product family, IronSoftware is focused on a few core principles:
- Reduce Friction: Make it easier to translate prototypes, scripts, and command-line workflows into robust .NET applications.
- Embrace Cross-Platform: Support Windows, Linux, macOS, containers, and cloud environments with equal priority.
- Respect Developer Time: Deliver libraries that are easy to install, well-documented, and ready for real-world workloads.
These tools are particularly valuable for teams that are:
- Migrating services to the cloud or containers.
- Standardizing on .NET in polyglot environments.
- Handling high-volume document processing or API integrations.
