A number of topics have been stubbed out. For any existing topic you can simply update the project with the relavent content. Be sure the Project heads are each updated as follows:
- The Display Name on iOS, Android and UWP should be updated from
Prism Sampleto be relevent to what your sample is on. It should also be short! (i.e. ViewModelInitialization -> Prism Init, EventToCommandBehavior -> Event 2 Cmd) - Please do not change any existing colors or styles. You may add colors / styles if they help but the samples are generally meant to be simple.
- The Sample's all use
com.prismlibrary.prismsampleas the Bundle/Package Id. If every sample kept this you would not be able to have samples side by side. Be sure that the final segmentprismsampleis updated to the lowercase name of the sample (i.e.com.prismlibrary.eventtocommand)
If you're adding a brand new sample be sure to start with a copy of the resources in the Sample Template directory.
