Make UnifiedMaps package and sample app as separate solutions

[frode]

The sample app should have its own solution file and reference UnifiedMaps package on NuGet.

Hi Frode,

The sample app is part of the solution because it makes it easy to test while implementing new features or doing bugfixes. So making it separate would not make much sense from a development perspective.

Hi very humble..

You don't see a value in giving users an option to simply download a sample app to give the map package a spin for evaluating it?

We understand the value in a separate sample app. But for development the current solution provides value too.

To just trying it out, it also works. Or did you encounter a problem with it?

Others, like Xamarin Forms MediaPlugin are doing what you suggest, but then libraries like FFImageLoading use the same approach as we do and others do not even have a sample app, so there is not only one way to do this.
