[UI rewrite] Xamarin.Forms (including Linux & Gtk# support) port

Open StEvUgnIn opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

I am proposing to port UWPX-Client to Xamarin Platform, so that we can add iOS, android, GNU/Linux support and macOS support (as preview through Gtk#, later using Xamarin.Mac).

In theory, this would be possible since UWPX is written rather flexible and replacing individual components (e.g. push, sockets, db, ...) for platform specific ones should be possible.

But, I do not have any experience with that and also I'd like to have a rather good working XMPP Client for one platform, before I start porting it to others as well.

Any thoughts about that?

I think it would be wise to expect Microsoft might write a wrapper or a tool to port the project from UWP to Xamarin Forms
