HandyOrg/HandyControl

This system is a cross-platform UI component library, primarily for WPF and Avalonia, that provides a comprehensive set of customizable controls, styles, and templates. It supports multiple .NET frameworks and includes tooling extensions and project templates to streamline development workflows. The library also maintains a themed documentation site for user guidance.

The project expanded its architectural support to include .NET Core 3.1 and Avalonia, while modernizing the WPF control library with new compact styles and updated templates. Parallel efforts focused on improving the developer experience through Visual Studio integration and reorganizing the demo application for cross-platform compatibility.

4 changes.

This period focused on expanding the library's cross-platform capabilities by introducing a full Avalonia implementation, including new UI controls and attached properties. Simultaneously, the project simplified its internal structure by consolidating XAML theme resources and updating the Visual Studio extension for broader compatibility.

A new VisualStudioToolsManifest.xml file has been added to the build directory, registering a comprehensive list of HandyControl WPF controls (such as Button, ComboBox, DatePicker, and various panels) in the Visual Studio toolbox. This enables developers to drag and drop these controls directly from the toolbox in the Visual Studio designer, streamlining the UI development workflow.

The library now provides smaller, more compact visual styles for the DataGrid and ListView controls, accessible via the .Small suffix (e.g., DataGrid.Small, ListView.Small), which reduce row heights and padding for denser data presentation. Additionally, new style definitions have been introduced for the Window and MessageBox controls, updating their templates and visual properties to align with the current design system.

The HandyControlDemo application for Avalonia is introduced, providing a complete demo environment to showcase the library's controls and styles. This includes the core application entry point (App and MainWindow), a data model for cataloging demos, and a comprehensive set of localized string resources for the UI.

The HandyControl library for Avalonia adds a suite of new UI components and attachable properties. New controls include ButtonGroup, ProgressButton, and ConfettiCannon, alongside a Dialog implementation. The update also introduces numerous attached properties for styling and behavior, such as BackgroundSwitchElement, BorderElement, ContentControlAttach, IconElement, and TitleElement, enabling developers to apply consistent themes, hover effects, and layout configurations to existing controls.

The base style definitions for CheckComboBox, ComboBox, and TreeView have been added to the Net 4.0 theme resources. This introduces updated control templates and visual states for these components, including a new expand/collapse toggle style for TreeView and refined popup and selection behaviors for the combo boxes. Users will see a consistent, modernized appearance and improved interaction states for these controls across the application.

The demo application has been reorganized into a shared project structure (HandyControlDemo\_Shared) to support cross-platform or multi-targeting builds. This change introduces a new project item file (HandyControlDemo\_Shared.projitems) that aggregates all shared code-behind files, XAML files, and data models (such as AppConfig, GlobalData, and various DemoModels) into a single cohesive unit. Additionally, a new DemoHelper class was added to load demo code from embedded resources, and the application's startup logic, including singleton enforcement and skin configuration, has been consolidated within the shared App class.

The project's XAML theme resources, including converters, geometry definitions, and control styles, have been consolidated into a single \Theme.xaml\ file. This change simplifies the theme structure by merging previously separate resource dictionaries, ensuring all visual assets and styles are loaded from one location.

The NexT theme has been updated to version 7.1.0, introducing a significantly expanded and restructured configuration file (\_config.yml) that adds extensive support for HandyOrg-specific UI elements, including new menu items for 'HandyControl', 'Quick Start', and detailed property attachers. The release also includes a comprehensive update to the Chinese (zh-CN) language pack with new translations for UI components like copy buttons, comments, and copyright notices, alongside the addition of custom layout templates for the head, header, and sidebar to allow for easier theming.

The Next theme's visual presentation has been updated with new styles for the header, sidebar, post layout, and page templates. This includes a new 'back-to-top' button, a GitHub banner, and updated styles for code highlighting, post titles, and navigation menus. The sidebar now features a dimmer overlay and improved author and link sections. Additionally, the theme supports custom scrollbars, a rainbow header effect, and various post-related UI elements like comments, rewards, and reading progress bars.

The project has been reorganized into a multi-targeting solution that builds for .NET Framework 4.0, .NET 4.5+, and .NET Core 3.1+. This change introduces a new Avalonia-based demo and library, alongside shared projects for Microsoft.Expression.Drawing, Microsoft.Expression.Interactions, and System.Windows.Interactivity. The solution now supports distinct build configurations for each target framework, allowing developers to choose the appropriate build for their environment.

Added new Visual Studio project templates for WPF and WPF Core applications, including the \HandyControl\_VS\_Templates\ extension and associated \WpfApp\ and \WpfCoreApp\ project files, which allow users to quickly scaffold new projects with HandyControl. Additionally, the \doc\ directory now includes a \package.json\ and \package-lock.json\ for the Hexo-based documentation site, establishing the Node.js dependencies for building the documentation.
