I've just been attempting to use Magick.NET (Q16, AnyCpu) in my C# project. I installed it via nuget in Monodevelop (I'm on linux), and attempted to test it in my project with this code:
using ImageMagick;
// ...
MagickImage img = new MagickImage(requestedPath);
img.Thumbnail(new MagickGeometry(thumbnailWidth, thumbnailHeight));
cycle.Response.ContentType = "image/webp";
img.Write(httpContext.Response.OutputStream, MagickFormat.WebP);
img.Dispose();
...but I got an exception on the first line. Odd. Here's the relevant part of the stack trace:
Unhandled Exception:

What's going on here?
Magick.NET only works on Windows at the moment. There are plans to add support for Linux in the .NET Core version of Magick.NET. At the time of writing it is unknown when that will happen.
EDIT: Support for Linux has been added. Support for Mac is still on the todo list.
