MonoGame.Extended is a set of utilities (in the form of libraries/tools) to MonoGame that makes it easier to make games. Choose what you want, the rest stays out of your way. It makes MonoGame more awesome.
The libraries and tools are distributed as NuGet packages. The libraries can be installed into your existing MonoGame project with ease using a NuGet UI or CLI.
CLI:
dotnet add package MonoGame.Extended
Once you've installed one or more of the main packages you might also want to install the Content Pipeline extensions.
To do this you'll need to manually reference the MonoGame.Extended.Content.Pipeline.dll in the MonoGame Content Pipeline Tool because it doesn't support NuGet directly.
Alternately, if you want to try the latest and greatest you might want to build from source.
