# Unit Converter Plugin
The Unit Convert plugin as the name suggests is used to perform unit conversion on the user entered query.
This plugin uses a package called [UnitsNet](https://github.com/angularsen/UnitsNet).

These are the ones that are currently enabled (though UnitsNet supports many more). They are defined in [`Main.cs`](/src/modules/launcher/Plugins/Community.PowerToys.Run.UnitConverter/Main.cs).
### [`InputInterpreter`](/src/modules/launcher/Plugins/Community.PowerToys.Run.UnitConverter/InputInterpreter.cs)
- Class which manipulates user input such that it may be interpreted correctly and thus converted.
- Uses a regex amongst other things to do this.
### [`UnitHandler`](/src/modules/launcher/Plugins/Community.PowerToys.Run.UnitConverter/UnitHandler.cs)
- Class that does the actual conversion.
- Supports abbreviations in user input (single, double, or none).
