This repository is no longer being mantained, you should check the new one. Which is pretty much the same, except that the other one is now .NET standarized

Forms.Controls

Home of all Messier16 Xamarin.Forms controls 😁

A collection of simple Xamarin.Forms controls for your shiny apps:

• Checkbox
• RatingBar

Currently they work only on iOS and Android, though, they are coming to a platform near you.

I want them now!

1 - Install

From NuGet:

Remember to install the package in ALL your platform specific projects

2 - SetUp

Make sure to call Messier16Controls.InitAll(); right after Xamarin.Forms.Init(); in your projects. Look a tht AppDelegate.cs code snippet from the sample app:

    global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init();
    Messier16Controls.InitAll();

Each renderer provide it's own Init method if you are just using an specific control.

3 - Usage

Please check the Sample/ Test app for details on the usage of any of the controls.

Also, check the list of known bugs and feel free to report any other bug that you run into.

Acknlowledgements & licenses

I'm not the smartest guy regarding licensing terms and stuff, but:

• This project uses a port of Marxon13's M13Checkbox which is under the MIT License
• This project uses a port of erndev's EDStarRating which is under the BSD License
• This project uses (and takes a lor of inspiration from) XLabs' controls which are under the Apache 2.0 license
• This project uses xvare's UWPRatingControl which is under... who knows?

If you could explain to me (@fferegrino) how does those licenses work it would be greatly appreciated. And if you asked under which license the Messier16 controls are I'd say they're under MIT License.
