My apologies for the name choice, I actually didn't know "Iron" was taken for a lot of C#/.NET projects. We were looking for something that meant "hardened" because it's written in Rust, and went for "IronRDP". This being said, we're generating .NET bindings to IronRDP which we use in Remote Desktop Manager.
