Navigation Drawer Layout for Windows Phone 8.0

'One Drive like' Navigation Drawer Layout for Windows Phone 8.0.

How to Use

• Clone (download) the project

• Add the project (or just the .cs file) to your existing solution

• Add reference in your Windows Phone project

• In your MainPage.xaml, add a namespace

 xmlns:drawerLayout="clr-namespace:DrawerLayout;assembly=DrawerLayout"

• Replace the root Grid layout with the DrawerLayout

• Create two child Grid controls inside the DrawerLayout. First control will contain the main content and the second will contain the navigation drawer. Your MainPage.xaml code should look like this:

  <drawerLayout:DrawerLayout x:Name="DrawerLayout">
        <Grid>
            <!-- Main content goes here -->
        </Grid>
        <Grid>
            <!-- Navigation Drwawer goes here -->
        </Grid>
    </drawerLayout:DrawerLayout>

The final step is to initialize the layout in your MainPage constructor:

 public MainPage()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();
            DrawerLayout.InitializeDrawerLayout();
        }

• IsDrawerOpened - returns true if drawer opened, else returns false.

2. Methods
