I was searching for an article on the net about this, however I couldn't find anything.
Does PRISM for Xamarin Forms support the newer Shell / URI based navigation API?
Thanks in advance!
Currently, there is no support for Shell (and navigation) with Prism in Xamarin.Forms. For future investigation and news about this topic, there is an open issue on the Prism Library GitHub repository.
You can find it here, and you can also read the discussions about these topics.
This question already has answers here:
Is Orchard or Umbraco MVC?
(7 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
Now that both system's are built on ASP.NET MVC, does anyone have any experience dealing with both? Looking to set up a small business site for a friend, that will eventually have an online store. I've read a lot of posts, but nothing recent ( since Umbraco 5 was released ). If you've had experience, just looking for pros and cons. Anything related to commerce functionality would be helpful as well. Thank you.
Orchard has been built from ground-up around ASP.NET MVC 3. I personally prefer that one, as it's well designed, very active and backed by Microsoft. And, of course, totally free.
If you are looking for e-commerce solution - there is a new, very promising module called WebShop, along with a full tutorial.
Orchard is very dynamic and u can build your site out of parts, a e-commerce module would be able to provide parts that can be rendered as partial views. Another custom module could inject other views in there. It's just very extensible and i like it. U can allow some access to the admin panel just for store administrators etc.
I don't know about Umbraco with ASP.NET MVC as base, but i know Orchard is from Outercurve Foundation which i like alot.
As far as i know there is just one real commerce module, but i don't know if it is any good

Hi Don't know about Orchard but Umbraco V5 is ideal for a small business. The reason that you don't read a lot of post recently is that the Architecture is completely new. Expect a lot of documentation in the coming month. But you can already start with the site you get a lot of info if you are using the create template dialog in the backend which renders some default code for you.
Regarding Ecommerce I know the Package vendors of UWebshop and UCommerce are already building next versions of their products on top of Umbraco V5 so expect a fully integrated Ecommerce solution soon.
This is a time-relative answer, but if you want an MVC based .NET CMS then your only real choice between the two is Orchard at this time. Umbraco 5 saw an early retirement so it's back to webforms, although as of 4.10 MVC support was bolted on and I believe there are some modules out there that give 4.x some MVC support as well. Orchard, on the other hand, is built on ASP.NET MVC 3 from the ground up and incorporates a handful of other cool technologies that make writing clean code that adheres to industry standard best practices easier.
I want to post on facebook wall from my website, i had built the site in ASP .Net, I don't know how to perform this task. Can anyone please guide me or give me a script to post on facebook wall.
Here is a documentation on Getting started with Facebook developers
The Graph API is the core of Facebook Platform, enabling you to read and write data to Facebook. It provides a simple and consistent view of the social graph, uniformly representing objects (like people, photos, events, and pages) and the connections between them (friendships, likes, and photo tags).
Here's a sample application from CodeProject to use the Graph API.
hope it helped !
I've had some fun playing with the Facebook C# SDK for creating Facebook applications.
Are you using C# on your site?
The SDK is quite easy to get started with and there are a few tutorials etc...

I am comparing Alfresco, Magnolia & Joomla especially specific to following features:
a. Ease of Integration of user created templates.
b. JCR (JSR-170?) or CMIS compliance.
c. Scalability in architecture.
d. Mobile site deployment.
I used cmsmatrix.org to compare features but I could not get some of the specific information related to above mentioned points.
Any insights based on your experience on working with one or more of the above CMS products will be helpful.
Thanks,
Krish.
While these four products are branded as CMS I don't think they are really comparable. Drupal and, for what I know, Joomla are web publishing CMS (or WCMS), they are designed to create web sites and manage their content. They are not designed as generic CMS, DMS or ECM. Alfresco, and probably Magnolia, are ECM/DMS designed to manage enterprise contents.
For instance, while manageable in Drupal (given enough effort and custom PHP code), complex multi-states multi-actor workflow for multilingual documents (PDF, Office, etc.) are probably easier to manage with Alfresco. And Alfresco is probably not suitable to manage web content with lightweight publishing workflow and user generated content.
Having the managed content published on a web site does not means it has to be managed by the same tools that the one used to manage the web site. For instance, using the Drupal CMIS module, you can bridge it with Alfresco (or any CMIS compliant ECM) to manage your enterprise content in the suitable tools but publish parts of it on a Drupal site.
Summarizing inputs I received here along with what I found in my search from various discussions so far (thanks #mongolito404 and bkraft).
For web content management features - Drupal / Joomla is recommended.
For Enterprise Content Management / Document Management features with minimal web publishing features - Alfresco / Magnolia is recommended.
For specific requirements the best of different tools can be used - Drupal to publish web content via CMIS support. Alfresco as solution for workflow & document management.
Alfresco already supports & continues to have CMIS in product roadmap (contributes to CMIS community).
Drupal is CMIS compliant (OOTB) with strong web content capability.
Leveraging best of both (Alfresco & Drupal) could also be one of the options depending on the requirement. Refer: http://www.optaros.com/blogs/drupal-alfresco-integration#
Another interesting option seems to be Liferay (v6+ specifically) with their CMIS integration capability: http://www.liferay.com/web/jonas.yuan/blog/-/blogs/integrating-alfresco-through-cmis-in-liferay
Thanks,
Krish.
Can't speak for the others, but from Magnolia's perspective, ease of integration is certainly a core feature. It runs on the Java platform, so integration is a given from the platform side. In addition Magnolia has been rated the most flexible CMS on the market today by independent analyst Tony White of Ars Logica download his free report (always worth a read, and other reports are also available).
JCR: Magnolia is based on JCR, and was so since the first line of code
CMIS: not implemented yet, but planned for Magnolia 5 to be shipped late this year
Scalability: Magnolia's got it covered. See our case studies
Mobile site deployment: again, comes naturally to Magnolia thanks to its architecture and rich out of the box functionality.

Update: CMIS is available as a community module since Magnolia v4.5
I have to implement application that can post to the selected network I can select from the application drop down.
There are Objective-C frameworks for Facebook (Three20) and Twitter (Twitter-OAuth-Library & MGTwitterEngine).
A quick trip to Google find facebook-android-sdk for connecting to Facebook on Android.
As far as Twitter goes, you can find a whole list of APIs for various languages/platforms on Twitter's developer website.
EDIT
A second trip to Google finds this on developer.myspace.com for adding MySpace to an iOS app. Also, see this page and this page on LinkedIn's Developer Network.
Basically, LinkedIn is just using a JSON encoded API with OAuth. You should be able to handle that with any OAuth library.
EDIT2:
It seems that I've found another great library. Check out ShareKit, which helps with alot of what you're trying to do.
#appaspect and #moshe, this is an old thread so the question my no longer be relevant, but here's a new open-source SDK and social api service: Socialize http://www.GetSocialize.com . Full feature set at http://go.GetSocialize.com/features
