• StreamDeck-Tools Template for Visual Studio (2019/2022) - Automatically creates a project with all the files needed to compile a plugin. This is the best way to start a new plugin!
• Install.bat - Script that quickly uninstalls and reinstalls your plugin on the streamdeck (edit the batch file for more details). Put the install.bat file in your BIN folder (same folder that has Debug/Release sub-folders)
• EasyPI - Additional library used to easily pass information from the PI (Property Inspector) to your plugin.
• Profiles Downloadable empty profiles for the XL (32-key), Classic (15-key), Mini (6-key) and Mobile devices at https://barraider.com/profiles

• Encapsulates all the communicating with the Stream Deck, getting a plugin working on the Stream Deck only requires implementing the PluginBase class.
• Sample plugin now included in this project on Github
• Built-in integration with NLog. Use Logger.LogMessage() for logging.
• Auto-populate user settings which were modified by the Property Inspector
• Access the Global Settings from anywhere in your code
• Simplified working with filenames from the Stream Deck SDK.
• PluginActionId attribute let's you easily associate your code to a specific action defined in the manifest.json

• Updated Logger class to include process name and thread id

• Updated file handling in Tools.AutoPopulateSettings and Tools.FilenameFromPayload methods

• New Tools.FormatBytes function converts bytes to human-readable value
• New Graphics.GetFontSizeWhereTextFitsImage function helps locate the best size for a text to fit an image on 1 line

• Additional error checking
• Updated dependency packages to latest versions
• Sample plugin now included in this project on Github

• Updated Install.bat (above) to newer version
