hi there
I'm getting this error when i try to add ammy xamarin forms nuget.
and once create an ammy page it will throw a null Exception
.Net Standard : 2.0.1
Xamarin forms : 2.5.0.122203
Ammy.XamarinForms :1.2.92
Ammy Extention : 1.1.7

Did you install Ammy.XamarinForms into the same project that you have *.ammy files in?

[mo-kml]

yes i did

Can you share a sample project that reproduces the issue?

I'm back with some disappointing news. The "Items" issue was easy to fix, but it was only a small part of a problem. Basically, to use .NETStandard libraries Ammy backend needs a Roslyn compiler. But Nemerle (the language that the backend is written in) cannot reference Roslyn. Maybe it would be possible to rewrite the backend to C#, but it's a huge task that I'm not able to take on right now. If there is somebody who is prepared to help, I can provide some guidance.

Sorry for the bad news.

You should put this in lights up the top of the AmmyUI Xamarin page. I just spent a bit of time converting my project to AmmyUI only to realise that it'd never work due to the .net standard dependency.

Hi @lewcianci

Thank you for the suggestion. I have updated the page: http://www.ammyui.com/documentation/xamarin-forms-quickstart/

Ugh I came across as salty in my comment before. I'm sorry. AmmyUI looked cool and I got excited and then it didn't work haha. Sorry about that.
