Time to build a desktop app - it's been a while. Figured I'd have a look at something new, and oh my lord is the Uno platforms UI generator insanely good! I hate XAML with a passion, and this thing means I barely need to touch the stuff. <3
Did you know that if you want to deserialize something that maps to an interface but ALSO a concrete type, you need to register that concrete type in the resolver? I knew. I also forgot. 🤦
