[Windows] Create a Visual Studio add-on for XAMLator about xamlator

[jsuarezruiz]

I will try to help with this!

[jsuarezruiz]

We updated the Windows extension two days ago: #56
We would like to launch it for VS 2017 and VS 2019 (available now). For that, we need more tests time for VS 2019, etc. If anyone want, I can share a package here (vsix).

[jsuarezruiz]

I would like to share some screenshots:

We will have the Visual Studio for Windows the next week (PR). And after merge will be available in https://marketplace.visualstudio.com

[ylatuya]

There is an addin for Visual Studio in this fork https://github.com/csteeg/XAMLator/, we need to get the original author to create a PR here :)

[ylatuya]

@jsuarezruiz awesome work! I will review the PR tonight or tomorrow.
We also have to think about CI/CD and update the azure pipeline to do the Windows builds too.

[jsuarezruiz]

@IoTFier We need to merge the PR, pass some tests and integrate it in the CI/CD process. Will be available soon but is not available yet.

VS2019 now generally available, time to get that extension published!!! <3 <3

[mzhukovs]

Yes plz share! @jsuarezruiz really looking forward to giving it a go. Seems like others are as well.

[ylatuya]

The extension should also be available in the CI's artifacts

[IoTFier]

Hi @jsuarezruiz, I am looking forward to test this.

Is there a prerelease version you would like me to test it on my end ?

Thanks

@jsuarezruiz are you still working on it? I can only see 1 commit

[guiltm]

@jsuarezruiz are you working on it, or anyone? Thank you

[Sergiojoel9877]

Any updates?

[MagicAndre1981]

I switched to Hotreload which has a VS extension

[Sergiojoel9877]

Nice!

[IoTFier]

@jsuarezruiz thank you. I am going to download it in VS 15.9.9 and start using it.
Has it been published in https://marketplace.visualstudio.com ? I don't see it yet.

@jsuarezruiz - I am (and sure many of our community users) will be more than happy to be a beta tester if that helps.

Thanks

@jsuarezruiz Does this mean the hot reloading will work when running the UWP project (within a Xamarin Forms solution) as well?

[toomasz]

Is that extension available already? Where can i donwnload it from?

@toomasz - I don't think it is ready yet.
@jsuarezruiz - any ETA or input ?

[toomasz]

@mzhukovs I think you can build extension yourself, it's located here: https://github.com/ylatuya/XAMLator/tree/master/XAMLator.Client.VisualStudio

[mzhukovs]

I pulled down master and tried to run the VSIX after building but it says it couldn't find any currently installed compatible products. I only have VS2019 installed on the machine that I attempted this on. @toomasz

[IoTFier]

@ylatuya , @jsuarezruiz - Any hopes of getting this extension out for VS 2019 this week ?
Please help.

[IoTFier]

@ylatuya , @jsuarezruiz - is this extn killed because Microsoft is trying to build a new one ?

[mzhukovs]

Yea curious what happened - seemed like you guys had so much momentum and got it very close, have you dropped plans to finish this piece? @ylatuya @jsuarezruiz

[IoTFier]

@ylatuya , @jsuarezruiz - is this extn killed because Microsoft is trying to build a new one ?
Are you planning to release this anytime soon ?

[toomasz]

@IoTFier You can try https://github.com/AndreiMisiukevich/HotReload - it has extension now

[IoTFier]

@toomasz - I am using that now, but there have been some instability with the latest changes (for good reasons) being delivered. Thank you.
