#122

Description

Migrate UniformGrid to MCT

[VladislavAntonyuk]

I added samples in this PR (#5)
So decided to keep it in 1 review and add samples for UniformGrid later

Hey, @VladislavAntonyuk hope that you're doing fine. I have a couple of comments on this PR, one brings up our new contribution flow and the other about the implementation.

Not sure you saw our latest Community Stand-up where @brminnick showed our contribution process. The contribution process changed from the old XCT.

The first step is to ask in the issue to work on it and wait for us to confirm that you can work on that issue, this will help us to keep everything on track.

About the code implementation, the Layout API was changed in the .NET MAUI, this one is the legacy API with that I believe that we want to migrate this layout to the newest API.

Happy to see that we will have your contributions here as well <3

Hi @VladislavAntonyuk! Echoing Pedro, thanks again for your hard work!

I've temporarily added the do not merge tag here to pause and catch up on the process before we review/merge the PR.

Here's the steps for us to catch up on the paper work:

1. Please leave a comment on [Proposal] UniformItemsLayout #122
2. The Proposal Champion (in this case, @jsuarezruiz) will then remove the help wanted tag and assign it to you

This all ensures that we don't have multiple people working on the same Proposal.

@pictos updated the code to remove the usage of the Compatibility namespace.
@pictos , @brminnick thank you for providing the link for the new flow.

Also added the fix for the new .net 6-rc2

@VladislavAntonyuk Thanks for that, I'll review it asap

@brminnick the implementation is updated to remove Xamarin compatibility namespace. is DoNotMerge label still valid? (I just don't like this name 😄 )

Once @jsuarezruiz removes the help wanted tag and assigns it to you, we can remove the do not merge tag

@VladislavAntonyuk Since this is a New Feature, could you also add Unit Tests for it?

[TheCodeTraveler]

FYI - we are also going to wait to merge this PR until dotnet test works with .NET MAUI projects: dotnet/maui#3017

Right now, .NET MAUI projects throw this error when running dotnet test:

Testhost process exited with error: It was not possible to find any compatible framework version
The framework 'Microsoft.Maui.Core', version 'FromWorkload' (x64) was not found.

Once MAUI includes this fix, I'll update our Azure Pipelines config to include unit testing then review/merge this PR 🙌

[TheCodeTraveler]

Unblocking this now that .NET MAUI supports Unit Tests 🎉

FYI - 2 of the new UniformGrid UnitTests are failing in the CI Pipeline:

@brminnick , @jsuarezruiz tests are fixed.
As for the discussion about MaxRows and MaxColumns, I suggest to not put it in this PR. This one is about migration without adding a new functionality

Thanks!!

I defer to the Proposal Champion, @jsuarezruiz, but I vote to include MaxRows and MaxColumns in this PR (assuming that was the verdict in the discussion).

We really don't have the concept of "Migration PRs"; instead, we are viewing each new .NET MAUI Community Toolkit feature as a brand new feature, and if we can tweak/update/fix its similar implementation from Xamarin.CommunityToolkit, we should do it 💯

Added as a separate commit.

@brminnick , @jsuarezruiz could you please review? it also adds Views sample. so we do not need to copy the code between different PRs. thank you

[TheCodeTraveler]

@jsuarezruiz - friendly reminder to review this PR ❤️

Any chance you can take a look this weekend?
