DevExpress Unit Conversion API

A lightweight .NET library for converting between metric and US customary units of measurement using a type-safe fluent API. Supports distance, mass, temperature, area, volume, speed, and metric prefix conversions. The API requires no external dependencies beyond the DevExpress.Document.Processor NuGet package and works identically on .NET 8+ and .NET Framework 4.6.2+.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Convert distances or lengths (meters, feet, miles, kilometers, inches, yards, nautical miles)
• Convert mass/weight values (grams, kilograms, pounds, ounces, metric tons)
• Convert temperatures (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin)
• Convert area measurements (square meters, square feet, acres, hectares, square miles)
• Convert volumes (liters, gallons, cubic meters, cubic feet, fluid ounces, pints, quarts)
• Convert speeds (km/h, m/s, mph, knots, feet per second)
• Convert between metric prefixes (kilo, mega, milli, micro, etc.)
• Combine unit values with arithmetic (e.g., 5 feet + 4 inches, then convert to meters)
• Build type-safe unit-aware calculations without manual conversion factors
