UnitTools

High-performance .NET unit conversions — straightforward numeric APIs, strongly typed quantities, and precise calculations.

GitHub repository · Documentation · Release notes

UnitTools includes 150 conversion families, 1,858 registered units, and 39,458 directed non-identity conversions within compatible families. Choose direct numeric conversion, fluent extensions, typed quantities, exact decimal/rational conversion, dynamic parsing, or custom unit definitions. The core library has no third-party runtime package dependencies.

Packages

NuGet package	Purpose
`UnitTools`	Full conversion engine and quantity APIs
`UnitTools.SystemTextJson`	Optional `System.Text.Json` support for typed unit values
`UnitTools.Analyzers`	Optional Roslyn compile-time guidance

All three packages ship with the same version, currently 1.0.2. Install only the parts you need.

Installation

dotnet add package UnitTools

For JSON integration or analyzer diagnostics, install the matching companion package in addition to the core package.

Quick start

using UnitTools;
using UnitTools.Length;
using UnitTools.Quantities;

// Numeric conversion: 4 km -> 4000 m.
double meters = UnitToolsLength.Convert(
    4d,
    UnitToolsLengthUnit.Kilometer,
    UnitToolsLengthUnit.Meter);

// Fluent numeric conversion.
double fluentMeters = 4d.Convert(
    UnitToolsLengthUnit.Kilometer,
    UnitToolsLengthUnit.Meter);

// Keep the unit attached to a value.
double wrappedMeters = new UnitValue<UnitToolsLengthUnit>(
    4d, UnitToolsLengthUnit.Kilometer)
    .To(UnitToolsLengthUnit.Meter).Value;

// Compile-time dimensional safety.
Length<decimal> distance = Length<decimal>.FromKilometres(4m);
decimal typedMeters = distance.Metres;

Parsing, exact arithmetic, and composite units

double speed = UnitToolsDynamic.Convert("36 km/h", "m/s");
decimal exact = UnitToolsExact.Convert(
    1m, UnitToolsLengthUnit.Inch, UnitToolsLengthUnit.Foot);
double energy = UnitToolsComposite.Convert(1d, "N*m", "J");

Compatibility and design

Core: .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET 8.
JSON and analyzer companions: .NET Standard 2.0.
Standalone core without third-party runtime dependencies.
Exact decimal/rational paths, span-based parsing/formatting, localization, composite units, and arbitrary-scale number naming.
Release validation includes tests, API compatibility checks, NativeAOT smoke tests, and clean NuGet consumers.
