Alternate to Toast.Forms.Plugin for Xamarin Forms App - plugins

I have been using Egor Bogatov's Toasts.Forms.Plugin v2.0.4 to display success/failure/info messages to users. After migrating to .Net Standard I needed to upgrade the plugin, since that version supports .Net Framework. Unfortunately the 3+ version has morphed into a notification framework and does not fit our needs. Is there an alternate plugin that supports .Net Standard and simply displays a message for a set length of time?

you can use Plugin.Toast v 2.1.1 to display message, warning, error success and create your custom toast. It's available for iOS and Android projects

Is there a MAUI Map control

Is there a maui map control. If so is there a tutorial somewhere. I do not wish to use a 3rd party control, and I want to use opensteetmap. I realy do not want to use google maps.
The official Maps functionality was unfortunately cut for the current GA version. It is on the roadmap for .NET 7 which is scheduled for November.
However, that functionality will use the map which is supported on each platform, so: Apple Maps for iOS/macOS, Google Maps for Android and Bing Maps for Windows. And you specified you wanted to do OpenStreetMap.
For this there is a third-party control: MapsUI. They are working on .NET MAUI support and I think they already have a test version that has .NET MAUI support.
Update November 2022: See the new Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Maps package, released for .NET 7.
I am now using dymaptic.GeoBlazor successfully and I can recommend it.

Annotator 2.0.0-alpha.3 not working in touch devices

I am using annotator js(2.0.0-alpha.3) in my application it works well in desktop and in touch devices it is not working.
I see in documentation when we use 1.2 version we can use a touch plugin but for version 2.0.0 we dont have any plugin but we have native mobile support.
And also in documentation I can see for 2.1 version these are the changes available
https://github.com/openannotation/annotator/blob/master/doc/roadmap.rst
The main goals for this release, which we aim to ship by Jan 1, 2016 (with a major feature freeze on Nov 15):
Support for selections made using the keyboard
Support in the core for annotation on touch devices
Support for multiple typed selectors in annotations
Support for components that resolve (‘reanchor’) an annotation’s
selectors into a form suitable for display in the page
But I could nt see any 2.1 version in github so wanted to know whether we have updated information on the same.

Facebook SDK for .NET Core

Up until now I've been using Facebook SDK for .NET by https://hackerapp.com/
I want to upgrade my project to ASP.NET Core, but I see that their library doesn't have support for .NET Core - nor do they mention about upcoming support for .NET Core.
I can write an HTTP wrapper against Facebook API - but that seems like over-complicating my app - when there's a nice library that is made just for that.
Does anyone know about Facebook SDK for .NET Core?
So after not finding a solution, I've decided to develop my own some time ago. You may find here: https://github.com/developer82/FacebookCore
I don't know why you got a -1, but I am facing the same issue.
Therefore for now I am going to use the OAUTH provided by .Net then direct requests to the graph API...
The other option I know would be to have a look there:
https://github.com/Microsoft/winsdkfb
And there for some more advanced features:
https://github.com/Microsoft/UWPCommunityToolkit/tree/dev/Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.Services/Services/Facebook
I am thinking about porting a SDK to .Net Core, but that may be too much work!

How can I use a javascript library like Angular.js on the Smartface

Is the Smartface provide external libraries in order to them on projects?
For example, if I want to use Angular.js in my Project, is it possible?
Smartface App Studio can use any JavaScript code or frameWork without DOM.
Also, there is an ongoing development about plugin support for community. You can also use Obj-C , JAVA , C++ libraries in your applicaiton.
You can also check the link below which uses UnderScore frameWork in Smartface App Studio;

FaceBook C# SDK in .NET 2.0

I am using facebook registration plugin . Signed request that is sent to other page I need to extract data from it. I am having hardtime using Facebook C# SDK cause it starts with .NET 3.5 version while I am having a .NET 2.0 application.It shows all errors about assemblies.Is there any simple function I can include instead of using this whole SDK and complicating things more than I need.
Facebook C# SDK requires minimum of .net 3.5. .net 2.0 is not supported and will not be supported in future versions. The only way would be to update the framework to .net 3.5
