Microsoft.Recognizers.Text provides robust recognition and resolution of entities like numbers, units, and date/time; expressed in multiple languages. Full support for Chinese, English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese. Partial support for German and Japanese. More on the way.

Microsoft.Recognizers.Text powers pre-built entities in both LUIS: Language Understanding Intelligent Service and Microsoft Bot Framework; and is also available as standalone packages (for the base classes and the different entity recognizers).

The Microsoft.Recognizers.Text packages currently target four platforms:

• C# version - NuGet packages available at: https://www.nuget.org/profiles/Recognizers.Text
• JavaScript version - NPM packages available at: https://www.npmjs.com/~recognizers.text
• Python version (in progress)
• Java version (in progress)

Contributions are greatly welcome! Both for fixes and extensions in the currently supported languages and for expansion to new ones. Especially for Japanese, Italian, Korean, and Dutch.
