Running the Demos

Notes

• Only the CrossPlatDemo is ready out-of-the-box for all platforms.

• All other demos are Windows-ready by default. You can run them, but may require a bit of knowlege on how those frameworks work.

  • For Angular/React/Vue using start url - local://dist/index.html it uses xcopy (on Windows to copy the dist folder to bin/exe folder) since it may be different for other platforms, you may have to copy the dist folder manually or replace xcopy functionality.

  • For Blazor demos, xcopy is also used in PostBuildEvent. This may require replacement too (or manual copy) for Linux and MacOS.

To run the demos in different platforms - Windows, Linux and MacOS may require a few tweaks.

Assumptions:

• Visual Studio Code (You can use Visual Studio 2019 too)
• x64 architecture

After downloading the source code - either by cloning or direct download, you need to do the following:

• Ensure appropriate runtime is selected in project file. Delete or comment out what is not needed.

    <RuntimeIdentifier>win-x64</RuntimeIdentifier>
    <RuntimeIdentifier>linux-x64</RuntimeIdentifier>
    <RuntimeIdentifier>osx-x64</RuntimeIdentifier>

• Download and install .NET Core 3 Runtime binaries. You will need .NET Core 3 runtime installed. You can install directly if you know what is required. Or you start with building and running and see what is missing.

dotnet restore
dotnet build
dotnet run

and see what errors you get. It will usually tell you what is missing.

• If you are running on MacOS for the first time, you may run into issue #27.

**** This is just how to run the demos. For full documentation please see wiki.
