Addeed

• Added overload which allows an initial string for the ValueStringBuilder
• Meziantou.Analyzer as developer dependency to spot issues early on

v1.5.1

Added

• Hot path optimization for strings

v1.5.0

Added

• New easy API for concatenating smaller strings or objects via ValueStringBuilder.Concat("Hello", " ", "World");

v1.4.1

Added

• Smaller internal API improvements
• Smaller performance improvements

v1.4.0

Added

• Added the scoped keyword to simplify code and allow more scenarios for the user

Fixed

• Grow allowed values, which would truncate the internally represented string

v1.0.1

Added

• Include debug symbols when publishing to NuGet for easier debugging experience
