Windows Source in Github Repo

[mattdrepo]

Forgive me for being short sighted, but do you have a repository and releases, for the windows version of your app? If not can I request it here. I don't use Windows but would like to try it through Wine or other means, so as to have a desktop client in sync with your Android app.

Thanks and apologies for asking here.

Thank you for asking. The source code contains all platforms, it is a Maui project which means that you can choose which platform you want to build in VisualStudio, or you can have a look at the GithubAction which I use to build the release binaries: https://github.com/martinstoeckli/SilentNotes/blob/main/.github/workflows/build-silentnotes.yml

The best starting point is probably the https://github.com/martinstoeckli/SilentNotes/tree/main/src/SilentNotes.Blazor project, it is this project which can build all versions. In https://github.com/martinstoeckli/SilentNotes/tree/main/src/SilentNotes.Blazor/Platforms you will find all platform specific code, the most code is independend and identical for both platforms: https://github.com/martinstoeckli/SilentNotes/tree/main/src/SilentNotes.AllPlatforms

The https://github.com/martinstoeckli/SilentNotes/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md contians a section with useful infos to build a side by side debug installation.

May I ask that you include a windows binary compiled in the releases here? I would prefer that if possible.

Thanks again for clarification.

You can download the binaries from SilentNotes homepage in the section Sideloading, it is the same installer you would get in the Microsoft store. Since it is signed by the Microsoft store itself, I cannot build it directly, a self signed installer would be rejected by the Windows Smart Screen.
