I've been looking around the code for The Things Network and the SDK for awhile now and see no reason why the SDK cant be implemented as a .NET Standard 2.0 library; to which end I will be starting a project on github to build a version of the The Things Network - Java SDK as a .NET standard 2.0 library; and utiliising 3rd party open-source MQTT and gRPC libraries.
