Client libraries on GitHub
Norce Commerce has several tools and examples on our GitHub. These are not formally part of the actual Norce product and are instead released under an open source licence. This makes it possible for you to use these projects as you see fit. See more on our suggestions below.
Norce releases these projects under MIT open source license, which lets you use the code as you see fit, but Norce are not responsible for any errors or bugs either.
Here is the state and purpose of the different projects.
Active
Active project, that is maintained and continuously developed to make use of the latest functionality in Norce’s API’s.
| Name | Description | Purpose | Links |

| Storm.Contracts.Message | Shared contracts with other projects. | Norce provides full contracts for .net platform. | Used by Storm Connect Contracts and Storm Exportfeed contracts. |
Deprecated
Projects that are deprecated, which means that they are still maintained, in its current state and functionality. But will not be continuously developed for new features. If functionality is drastically changed it is unlikely, but possible that the project might not work for that functionality anymore (in that case it is of course possible to grab a fork and make the necessary changes yourself and use it in your solutions).
Norce recommends to transition away from projects that are deprecated in your own pace.
