Requirement

Add metadata to the generated nuget package to show more information about the library and what it does. Fields to include:

  • Description
  • License
  • Link to github repo
  • Author(s) / Owner(s)
  • Tags
  • Copyright

Also, to avoid confusion, set the version field to 0.0.0. The version number is maintained in git and pushed into the .csproj file at build-time and should not be maintained in the .csproj file.

Value Proposition

Adding this metadata gives the package more context when viewed in tools such as Visual Studio's Nuget package manager.

Design Ideas

All these fields are defined in the project's .csproj file. They can either be defined manually or through the "Project Properties" UI in Visual Studio.
