# StampCollectorApp
[🇵🇹 Portuguese version](./README.md)




> **StampCollectorApp** is a cross-platform app for stamp collectors, developed with .NET MAUI (.NET 8). It allows intuitive and organized management of stamps, exchanges, collections, categories, and images.
---
## ✨ Features
- **Stamp Management:** Add, edit, remove, and search for stamps.
- **Collections:** Organize stamps into collections, tracking expected and collected quantities.
- **Categories:** Classify stamps by custom categories.
- **Images:** Attach local images or search for stamp images via the Pixabay API.
- **Smart Validation:** Required fields, date checks, positive values, and more.
- **Exchange Mode:** Mark stamps as available for exchange.
- **Registering Exchanges:** Easily record a stamp exchange with another collector. After selecting a stamp for exchange, fill in the collector's name and contact information, and add notes if desired. The app keeps a full history of all exchanges for future reference.
- **Notes and Details:** Record detailed information about each stamp and collection.
- **Interactive dashboard:** View statistics and summaries through charts and indicators, with advanced filters by Category, Collection, and Country. Allows for personalized analysis of your collection data.
---
## 📊 Dashboard
The dashboard page provides an overview of your stamp collection, displaying metrics such as:
- Total number of stamps, collections, categories, and exchanges;
- Pie charts for stamps by category, by collection, and by country;
- Exchange activity over the last 12 months.
**Filtering options:**
Use the filters at the top of the dashboard to display data according to:
- **Category**: Shows only stamps from the selected category.
- **Collection**: Filters statistics for a specific collection.
- **Country**: Allows viewing only stamps from a particular country.
After choosing your desired filters, tap **"Apply filters"** to update the charts and indicators. To return to the global view, simply use the **"Clear filters"** option.

## 🔄 About Registering Exchanges
The app allows you to register stamp exchanges with other collectors easily:
1. **Select a stamp marked as available for exchange.**
2. **Enter the collector's information** (name, contact and transaction date) and add notes about the exchange if you wish.
3. **Register the exchange:** The stamp will be removed from your collection, and the exchange will be added to your history.
4. **Exchange history:** Review all exchanges in a dedicated section of the app, with details such as date, collector name, contact, and notes.
5. **Tip:** After registering an exchange, if you have not yet added the stamp received from the other collector, please do so to keep your collection up to date.
