What's the easiest way to start?

LibreHardwareMonitor application:

1. Download the repository and compile 'LibreHardwareMonitor'.
2. You can start the application immediately.

Sample code:

1. Download the repository and compile 'LibreHardwareMonitorLib'.
2. Add references to 'LibreHardwareMonitorLib.dll' and 'HidSharp.dll' in your project.
3. In your main file, add namespace 'using LibreHardwareMonitor.Hardware;'
4. Now you can read most of the data from your devices.
