wtf is skytapsharp?

SkytapSharp is a programming helper for .NET developers who want to automate tasks in Skytap Cloud. Skytap is a service that lets you run virtual machines, basically simulated computers, in the cloud. This library gives you a way to control those virtual machines from your code, so you don't have to do it manually through Skytap's web interface. At a high level, it translates between your .NET code and Skytap's web API. You write commands in your preferred programming language, and this library sends those commands to Skytap over the internet. The kinds of things you can automate include starting up virtual machines, running programs on them, shutting them down, checking their status, and managing user accounts and resource quotas. Essentially, if you have a workflow that involves repeatedly setting up and tearing down cloud-based computing environments, this library is designed to make that process scriptable. The audience is developers building automation around Skytap Cloud, think QA engineers spinning up test environments on demand, or teams managing training labs where each student needs their own isolated set of virtual machines. Rather than clicking through Skytap's interface every time, they could write a script that provisions the needed resources, runs some work, and then cleans up automatically. One important caveat: the project is explicitly marked as a work in progress and not yet suitable for any real use. The README notes that installation instructions and sample usage are still to-do, so anyone interested would need to dig into the code itself to understand how to use it. It also targets a specific Skytap API version from 2013, which may be outdated.
