It's best to reach out if you'd like to collaberate to maximise the chances of getting your changes into the released software.

This application is written in .NET 6. This was choson over .Net Core / UMP so that the application doesn't run in a sandbox, and because UWP applications have 'application and lifecyle management control', meaning they pause when minimised or not in use which wouldn't work for this application (as far as I can tell anyway).

To develop and build, install .NET 6 SDK and open up the soluiton found in the /AuthentiKitTrimCalibration solution in Visual Studio 2022. It's written using a pretty standard pattern so if you're familar with the .NET you should be able to dev and build with relative ease. You'll need the Installer Projects plugin for Visual Studio.

To run the UI tests, you'll need WinAppDriver. Grab the MSI installer for v1.2.1 if you're having issues.

• Run the WinAppDriver Server at C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Application Driver\WinAppDriver.exe
• Run the tests in the MSTest Project AuthentiKitTuningApp.Test to automatically open the latest Debug build and run through a series of tests before closin the app and giving a test summary. Note that your mouse will move around as the tests execute.
