In .NET the most well-known rules engine is probably <a href="https://nrules.net/">NRules</a>, the project has been around for some years and has good documentation. I also know that Microsoft created its own rules engine, <a href="https://microsoft.github.io/RulesEngine/">RulesEngine</a> back in 2019. Then per <a href="https://github.com/quozd/awesome-dotnet">awesome-dotnet</a> I could use <a href="https://github.com/sang-hyeon/Plastic">Plastic</a> or <a href="https://github.com/peasy/Peasy.NET">Peasy.NET</a> but I opted out on looking at those projects, for my use case I think NRules or RulesEngine will do.</p>
