Glidex For Windows Install

Since Glidex is a software library (NuGet package) and not a standalone Windows application, "installing" it involves integrating it into your Visual Studio project.

Here is the Feature: Glidex Windows Installation Guide.


For Xamarin.Forms (UWP)

You need to initialize Glidex in the MainPage.xaml.cs file of your UWP project.

  1. Open MainPage.xaml.cs in your UWP project.
  2. Add the Glidex.Forms namespace.
  3. Initialize the library inside the constructor.

Code Example:

using Glidex.Forms;
using Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls;
namespace MyApp.UWP
public sealed partial class MainPage
public MainPage()
this.InitializeComponent();
// Initialize Glidex for performance optimization
            Glide.Initialize();
// Load the Xamarin.Forms application
            LoadApplication(new MyApp.App());
