Onboarding Screens #4

Open davidortinau opened 5 years ago

davidortinau commented 5 years ago

Description

Video in the background of Xamarin developer story. Asking for 30-60 videos sharing what they love about using Xamarin, what it has done for them personally, for their company, impact for their customers, etc.

Muted by default, with a button to toggle. Think Instagram.

Text overlay with some details. Icon to interact with that, reveal like the Windows login screen.

Perhaps a nice non-uniform reveal.

3 at a time, horizontal scroll/carousel. Parallax or storyboard animated transition of overlay elements would be nice.

Hello, @davidortinau .

Video player is an option to consider, because it is currently necessary to use third-party plugins for implementation or customize by platform.

davidortinau commented 5 years ago

I think it's fair to do a custom renderer here, which is a valid customization to demonstrate.

We should replace that with a cross-platform control once we have https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/pull/3482

Does that sound like a reasonable plan for now @andersonvieiragomeslopes ?

@davidortinau I think there are three key points that can be displayed on the onboarding page:

Xamarin Successful Case: although many people in the world are already using Xamarin, but there are still some people exploring the availability of xamarin.
What can Xamarin achieve: we can show the advantages of Xamarin across platforms(An open source app platform from Microsoft for building modern & performantiOS, Android, macOS, watchOS, & tvOS apps with .NET).
What can you get from this app: a beautiful, performant, open source xamarin.forms app, the latest xamarin blogs and videos, the latest xamarin technologies, etc...

For those new to xamarin, this onboarding page should clearly tell them what xamarin is.
