Project template for xplat FuncUI Avalonia, Elmish style?

[bentayloruk]

Hello. Are there any examples or a project template, that will set me up with FuncUI for an xplat Elmish mobile app (iOS and Android)? I think I'm looking for something that is a cross between the avalonia.xplat template (xplat Avalonia but not Elmish) and one of the Elmish examples here (Elmish but not setup for iOS, Android etc). Any pointers would be much appreciated!

I would start with the Avalonia template and then manually add the FuncUI packages and copy the relevant lines in Program.fs from the examples. It’s more straightforward than you might think.

Great, I shall give it a go! I thought I would ask first as you can sometimes spend ages trying to figure this out when on a new framework (e.g. there is some magic bit you have to flip somewhere etc). Thanks for the reply.

Take alook at this PR
AvaloniaUI/avalonia-dotnet-templates#102

It uses the component version but it should be relatively easy to change it to the most up to date version and may give you some pointers to get started

Here is a minimal sample iOS app.

Probably just a few lines of code ore required to (also) target android.

You might want to break it out into different projects

• shared (targets net6.0)
• ios (targets net6.0-ios)
• android (targets net6.0-android)

Thanks @AngelMunoz! I have a look at this later today. Thanks for the additional guidance too @JaggerJo.

Hey by the way I just updated the templates I had here: https://github.com/AngelMunoz/AvaloniaTest

That is the xplat template I based myself to make that closed PR above
It might be worth making a pull request to integrate one of the versions of this in the FuncUI repo
I'm not sure if the https://www.nuget.org/packages/JaggerJo.Avalonia.FuncUI.Templates nuget is up to date with the current versions + templates
