Hi,
This is a very newbie question, but I've recently downloaded restsharp from here:
https://github.com/restsharp/RestSharp
(zip)

Now, I'm wondering how to use it in my windows phone solution.

I tried to add references, but there was nothing to add from the restSharp folder that I had downloaded.

Do I need to compile one of the projects (say, silverlight/ or windows phone/) and then somehow add it into my main application or how should I proceed to be able to use

using RestSharp;

in my project?

Thanks a heaps!

I would suggest using nuget if at all possible.

You might need to install the command line version of NuGet. I'm not certain the Visual Studio Express version supports NuGet integration within the IDE.

I don't see any tags on the git repo. How do y'all identify which version you released from the repo?

Andy, we currently aren't tagging but we probably should be.

Jason, briefly, NuGet helps you manage your library dependencies. Hit the nuget website if you aren't already familiar with it.

Tagging would be awesome. We'd be able to fork from the exact release, build as necessary (if we don't want / can't use nuget), submit patch pull requests on the release, etc.
