Nearby Sharing android app using a modal SideSheet dialog

Nearby Sharing android app using a detached modal SideSheet dialog

Time to work on the UI of #nearshare again ✨

I'm thinking of replacing the `BottomSheet` with a `SideSheet`.
This would give more screen space but still be a modal dialog.

What do you think?
Do you like the (1) normal or (2) detached style more?

All apps using the Windows.Gaming.Input namespace will search the registry for mappings and detect the Stadia Controller.

By generating the layout with code like that has the benefit of .NET hotreload.

0.5s hotreload vs 30s rebuild is not too bad 😎

Still not Jetpack Compose though...

Csharp code snippet from an AppCompatActivity. Only the call to SetContentView is visible. Instead of specifying a resource id, the layout is generated by code while abusing some syntactic features in csharp.

Can't wait for extension indexers in #csharp!

This would finally remove the boilerplate parentheses from my #android layout...

Imagine you could write a native #windows #winui app in pure #typescript with simple tooling and no big setup.

Would you like to do so?
