Use the library

let's build a new C# console project for testing the GTranslatorAPI nuget package, using powershell, dotnet and vscode :

mkdir MyProject
cd MyProject
dotnet new console
dotnet add package GTranslatorAPI --version 2.0.0
code .

let's change the default main method in Program.cs, to change its default behavior (output 'Hello world!') by a new one, that adds a translation of 'Hello world!' to spanish, using the GTranslatorAPI :

using System;
using GTranslatorAPI;

namespace MyProject
{
    class Program
    {
        static async Task Main(string[] args)
        {
            string s = "Hello world!";
            Console.WriteLine(s);
            
            var translator = new Translator();
            var result = await translator.TranslateAsync(Languages.en,Languages.es,s);         
            
            Console.WriteLine(result.TranslatedText);    
            
            Console.WriteLine(dbg);
        }
    }
}

then run the project (ctrl+F5 | Run > Start without debugging). You should get:
