Building Apps for MS Teams in C# and XAML with Uno Platform

In this blog, we’ll explore how Uno Platform and WebAssembly make it possible to develop apps for Microsoft Teams using C# and XAML. And how they can help streamline your workflows, automate tasks, and bring new capabilities to your team. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a simple sample app running in web version of Microsoft Teams, similar to our Getting Started tutorial. (Create a Single Page App with Uno Platform) Prerequisites 1. Visual Studio 2022 includes built-in support for Microsoft Teams and provides useful starter templates, but they are not installed by default with any workloads. Instead, we need to select them in the Visual Studio Installer manually. Open the Visual Studio Installer and click Modify on your favourite Visual Studio 2022 instance. Next, select the ASP.NET and web development workload and then find and check the Microsoft Teams development tools option in the Installation details pane. 2. While you can technically test your Microsoft Teams on your production tenant, creating a developer account in the Microsoft 365 Developer Program is preferable. First, go to the official website here and click Join. Next, log in using your Microsoft or company account and fill out the requested information. When successfully logged in, click the Set up E5

Adding Google Maps to your Uno Platform-WASM App

Google Maps is the leading location data and visualization platform for the web, but the functionality of Google Maps extends well beyond its mobile app — if you are building a mobile, web, or desktop app and want to include location displays in any way, Google Maps offers  developer APIs that give access to Google’s geographical data. Google Maps API allows you to display and leverage interactive maps to help users create itineraries, routes, and more. Its data also refreshes in real-time, meaning that maps you create with Google API will always be up to date for visitors. Recently, a new Uno Platform user was looking to implement Google Maps into his Uno Platform WASM application but was running into some blockers since MapControl does not provide WASM support yet. Luckily, you can integrate Uno-WASM Web Applications with existing JavaScript components and it’s quite simple. In this article, Martin Zickmund works through a step-by-step guide on how you can easily implement Google Maps into your WASM application. Get the Google Maps API key You can follow any tutorial available on the web like here on how to get an API key via the Google Developer Console. It involves creating a

Theme-Aware Splash Screen in Uno Platform WebAssembly

We’re always keeping an ear out for feature requests, bugs, and issues raised by the community so we can continue to better improve Uno Platform. So when @TopperDEL brought up a great question about the possibility to use theme-aware splash screens on Uno Platform Discord channel, Martin Zikmund was quick to offer a solution. Splash Screen A “Splash Screen” is the first image or page displayed when you first load your application, while the application is initializing. The splash screen remains visible until the first page of the application is ready to display. Unlike iOS, Android and Windows, WebAssembly does not yet support theme respecting splash screens. For those interested, the PR can be seen here. And now, with the stable release of Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap 3.3.1 it can be used in all Uno Platforms apps literally with a single line change! Here’s How To Do ItOpen the AppManifest.js file in the WasmScripts folder of the WASM project in any Uno Platform app solution and either set the splashScreenColor to transparent or delete the property entirely: var UnoAppManifest = { splashScreenImage: “Assets/SplashScreen.png”, splashScreenColor: “transparent”, displayName: “Theme-aware splash screen” } And voilà! The splash screen will now match the theme of your OS or browser! Note: To achieve the same effect in UWP/WinAppSDK the exact same change is required in the
