I created this library because Google Photos's face search fascinated me for quite some time, but I wanted to achieve similar results on my local machine, fully under my control. After I had read up a bit it was clear that very capable models are freely available, e.g. in the ONNX model zoo, but using them still requires quite some work before you have an easily usable API. Thus I created FaceAiSharp, to hopefully make Face Recognition and Face Detection more easily usable for developers on .NET. I also created an interactive in-browser demo that demonstrates how to use it and how some basic principles of Face Recognition work [0]. If you give it a try and run into any issues I'm happy to help [1].
