SkiaSharp Samples

This folder contains many samples to demonstrate both platforms and features. If you download this repository and want to test builds or make changes to the library, then you are in the right place.

If you want to modify the libraries and/or samples, but don't have all the machines to build all the native libraries, check out this guide to downloading the pre-built native libraries.

If you are looking to try out the samples, but are not looking to build this repository, then check out the samples.zip file on each release.

This Folder

There are 2 main types of sample apps in this folder:

1. Basic
   Demonstrates the simplest way to use SkiaSharp on a particular platform.
2. Gallery
   Each app contains several sample drawing to demonstrate different features of SkiaSharp.

The "AppStoreCertificates" folder just contains the keystores and certificates to build the samples. This is more fore CI so it can build Release apps, so feel free to use your own.
