Manifest Elements

id: This is a unique identifier of the package. It's the name of the package that is used when installing the package using the Install-package command in the Package Manager console in Visual Studio. The Package Id follows the same rule as a .Net namespace. For example Mvc.Helper is a valid package id.
Version: This is a version of the package like 1.0.0.
Authors: This is a comma separated list of the authors of the package.
owners: This is a comma separated list of package creators. Most of the time it is same as package authors.
licenseUrl: This is a link to the license that the package is under. For example Apache license.
projectUrl: This is a link to the project home page. If the project is open-source then it can be the project source code URL like Github project URL.
