Playing with CarouselView and XKCD api

[nicolas-garcia]

Submission description

Just a basic XKCD viewer using a carousel.

What went well

Using the CarouselView when well, quite easy to use.

What didn't go well

I tried to reproduce a carousel like this one. But I did not manage to do it. I don't know if it is because of my lack of skill or because it is something quite hard to achieve at the moment.

Missing or desired things

Maybe a CurrentIndex bindable property?

Anything else

This challenge is a first for me! I hope my contribution is up to your expectations.

Thanks @nicolas-garcia !

What aspects of the web carousel you linked to did you have trouble with? Looks like maybe the previous/next buttons?

I believe the CurrentIndex you’re looking for is Position.

I struggled to reproduce the dots, the carousel indicators. But again, I tried for like 30 minutes, I think the problem is my skills and not the CarouselView 😆

Thanks for pointing out the Position property! In order to achieve a previous/next button, I guess I can use this property.

EDIt: Nevermind! I just found out #6577.
