Creating Neat .NET Core Command Line Apps

Every reason to get more HackerPoints™ is a good one, so today we're going to write a neat command line app in .NET Core! The Common library has a really cool package Microsoft.Extensions.CommandlineUtils to help us parse command line arguments and structure our app, but sadly it's undocumented.

No more! In this guide, we'll explore the package and write a really neat console app. We'll get good practices, a help system and argument parsing for free. Oh, it also involves ninjas. Insta-win.

	// Here's a simple array of "person" objects
	var people = [
	{ name: "John", age: 20 },
	{ name: "Mary", age: 35 },
	{ name: "Arthur", age: 78 },
	{ name: "Mike", age: 27 },
	{ name: "Judy", age: 42 },
	{ name: "Tim", age: 8 }
