I'm trying to use raix:push Meteor package but it doesn't work steadily for me. I have a lot of questions and instead of asking them all I just want to look at some working example which would work at least on Android.

Sorry this may be a dumb question but I just want to make sure.
I'm trying to add some internationalization to my app and have been confused. Currently I'm Next13 (not experimental, at least not yet) to switch between two languages by just using vanilla Nextjs. However, I see a lot of people use next-i18next and it looks like a lot of set up.
Should I use this package? Or is it more for bigger projects? Would it be better to switch to the experimental Next13 with everything being SSR?
As you can see, I'm just trying to figure out what problem it solves. Maybe it makes it easier, but it seems like a decent amount of set up.
I'd appreciate any help! Thank you so much.
so I'm trying to make a radio app using Xamarin.Forms. I decided to use MediaManager, but I've run into some issues with the packages. I've downloaded everything from nuget, but it doesn't seem to be working right. Every example I've seen uses Plugin.MediaManager.Abstractions to control playback, but VisualStudio says that this doesn't exist. Also, I can't say using Plugin.MediaManager at all instead it is having me use using MediaManager which is fine but no one else seems to be doing it that way. At this point I don't know if MediaManager has changed or if it's something with my computer (Mac). Any advice would be appreciated. I just want to figure out how to use IPlaybackController.
I thought I could just install Bootstrap 3 with Less into my Meteor app real quick and move on but it's been really problematic. I'm still just learning Meteor.
I added it with
meteor add less
meteor add simison:bootstrap3-less
Then I made a file imports.less in my {app home}/client/styles/ directory. In this file I put:
#import "/packages/bootstrap3-less/bootstrap.import.less";
#import "/packages/bootstrap3-less/lib/less/theme.import.less";
But apparently that no longer works since they updated Meteor's package manager. So I followed the directions on the github issues thread(https://github.com/simison/bootstrap3-less/issues/30). And that didn't really work how they said either. I just kept getting that the compiler couldn't find the two files. Finally Meteor stopped erroring when I changed it to this:
#import "../css/0-bootstrap3-less/lib/less/bootstrap.import.less";
#import "../css/0-bootstrap3-less/lib/less/theme.import.less";
Only now when the page loads in the browser it's just a blank white screen. I didn't change the html at all. Before I started doing this I had a form and h1 line there working(but plain and ugly). I made my form using aldeed's quickform which uses bootstrap3 by default. I've used bootstrap before but never with less. I thought it would be a good time to learn a bit about it.
Anyone have any clue why not even a line of text will show up now?
Note:
In defense of me asking a question since anytime I do I get clobbered by everyone and end up having my question closed within about 5 seconds. Yes there are very similar questions around on SO but I think only ones Sept 2014 or later would be valid.
It seems like this is the only relevant one from after the update: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25655746/meteor-0-9-0-1-w-bootstrap3-less-not-finding-less-files Since I'm not getting the compiler errors anymore, which I think means it's finding the files now, I'm not sure if I'm still having the same problem as this question or if it's different. I don't have enough rep to comment on that question but it seems like the github issue thread they linked to never really comes to a resolution.
At this point I'm not even sure if it's an issue with me not understanding Meteor or an issue with me not understanding how to use Bootstrap with Less.
As far as i understood you are using simison:bootstrap3-less with Meteor 0.9.x. The README on github tells you:
NOTE: This package was good for Meteor 0.6.x-0.8.x and with changes in
Meteor 0.9.x the method this package uses isn't working anymore.
Notice that the README has been changed since this question was asked.
For Meteor 0.9.x you should use Meteor 0.9.x nemo64:bootstrap less
I am looking for instructions on using Mobile Services for Xamarin.Forms? I am especially interested in how to get the device's current location. I know that there is sample code here, https://github.com/aritchie/acr-xamarin-forms, that showcases everything that you can do with the library, the only problem being it is way too complicated for a newbie to understand, and there are no comments
Links to any comprehensive tutes or sample code with comments would be appreciated. I have searched but have not come up with anything good.
Cheers
There are a good set of examples for learning Xamarin.Forms with some descriptions at the following link http://blog.falafel.com/learning-xamarin/.
With Xamarin.Forms being rather new you will have to search around for good snippets etc however.
There are a number of projects for Xamarin.Forms in https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-forms-samples. Try to looking at the following two for easier to understand short examples in Xamarin.Forms:-
https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-forms-samples/tree/master/FormsGallery
https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-forms-samples/tree/master/XAMLSamples
The examples are short enough that should help you to learn from them.
There is a specific map related example at the following that also shows your current location on a map that you may like to look at further also:-
https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-forms-samples/tree/8b9bbe853263f1eb29faca499619b0b757d8fbfd/WorkingWithMaps
Run the applications, make small modifications and experiment - a great way to learning.
Have fun!
If you want to find out a users location via shared code, look at the Geolocator plugin from the component store. super easy to use
I started looking at Silverlight.FX by Nikhil Kothari to replace Prism/Unity with our Silverlight 3 project.
So far I like the code layout and structure. It looks well thought out.
But I can't get a lot of the samples working due to a System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException. Anyone else seeing this? Should I not be using this framework with Silverlight 3?
I'm using the framework with Silverlight 3 without issue. Referencing the pre-built dlls works for my project but I haven't tried compiling the source myself. Have you tried using the dlls?
After some heavy debugging this error is coming because some of the class names that Nikhil used I believe are now in Silverlight 3 beta 1. In the TaskList example the ListView's DataTemplate has a HoverEffect
<fxeffects:ColorFill FillColor="#406795D1" Duration="0:0:0.25"/>
This is the one causing all the problems I saw. Removing this took away the AmbiguousMatchException.
Well, that is avoiding the problem, not solving it. It looks like the problem is much deeper, and anything that uses classes that derive from the Effect base class is broken. That makes the use of Silverlight FX pretty boring.
I have tried to use the lib in the past, and had issues with it. While Nikhil Kothari is amazing in the things he has worked on, and his technical abilities, I find that he is not so responsive to solving issues (BTW, someone already posted this problem on his blog, without his response). I do not want this to sound like a knock on Nikhil, it is just something you need to consider when using open source for real-world projects.
I sure hope someone can figure out what the deal is with those classes, I have spent many hours debugging, without solving the issue.
I tried the Amazon Store sample and the TaskList sample using the latest version of the library (3.1 built against SL3), and samples seem to work fine, including the ColorFill effect.
I did rename the Effect class to AnimationEffect which you'd need to avoid the ambiguous API compile error you'd see if you tried to recompile the sources... but precompiled binaries would have been fine. Not sure I see why you'd get a runtime reflection issue however.
Sorry, I know it can be frustrating to not see a response/fix immediately, but theres just too many things going on esp. before a release. My hope is having the source around at least enables you to debug into/break into so at least one is not completely blocked. Yes, I realize its suboptimal, but at the same time it is the reality, as Noam pointed out... :-(
