## Overview



“DroidNet” is envisioned as a comprehensive suite of sub-projects aimed at

automating and streamlining the development, testing, and continuous integration

of WinUI apps. “DroidNet” is designed to be a robust and comprehensive solution

for developing WinUI applications. Its focus on automation and quality

assurance, combined with its modular architecture, makes it a powerful tool for

any developer working with WinUI and WinAppSDK. Happy coding!



## Features



"DroidNet" has been designed with a focus on the following features:



- **Automation**: Automate repetitive tasks in your development process, such as

  building, testing, and deployment.



- **Modularity**: The project has been structured as a mono-repo, allowing for

  easy management and separation of concerns between different sub-projects.



- **Quality Assurance**: Includes built-in tools for code linting and

  formatting, as well as pre-commit hooks to ensure code quality before commits.



- **Integration with WinUI and WinAppSDK**: The project is designed to work

  seamlessly with WinUI and WinAppSDK, allowing developers to leverage the

  latest technologies in Windows app development.



### Docking framework for WinUI 3



The [Docking](projects/Docking/) project contains a flexible docking frameowrk

for WinUI. Dockable views can be embedded in Docks, which are managed in a tree

structure by a Docker. Combined with a pluggable layout engine, the docking tree

can be rendered into dock panels which can be attached to the workspace edges or

relative to other docks.

### MVVM ViewModel first router



Similar to what Angular does in a web application, the [Router](projects/Routing/)

provides a routing frameowrk to navigate within the WinUI application using URIs.

With the provided source generators, it is easy to declare views, view models, and

wire them together. The routing configuration is completely declarative and follows

the same principles than Angular.



### Application host and Dependency Container



The [Hosting](projects/Hosting/) project offers an integration with .Net Host and

the DryIoc container. The source generators automate the injection of services and

view models and a view locator service makes it intuitive to locate a view for a

particular view model.



## Getting Started



To get started with "DroidNet", you'll need to have Visual Studio installed on

your machine. You can then clone the repository and open the solution in Visual

Studio to start developing. Simply use the `open.cmd` script in any of the folders

to generate the solution file and open it in Visual Studio.
