- Embed SegoeFluentIcons.ttf as an AvaloniaResource
- Register SegoeFluentIcons FontFamily in App.axaml using avares URI
- Create FontLoader helper for robust font resolution (Embedded > System > File)
- Add safety checks to FontLoader to prevent rendering crashes if fonts are invalid
- Update ResultViewModel and ResultListBox to use resolved GlyphFontFamily
- Add ActiveView enum to track Results vs ContextMenu view state
- Add ContextMenu ResultsViewModel and view switching logic
- Implement LoadContextMenuCommand using PluginManager.GetContextMenusForPlugin
- Add keyboard navigation: Shift+Enter/Right to open, Left/Escape to close
- Update SelectNextItem/SelectPrevItem to navigate appropriate list
- Update EscCommand to return from context menu before hiding
- Load settings from disk via FlowLauncherJsonStorage
- Initialize PluginManager and query plugins on text change
- Add minimal AvaloniaPublicAPI implementing IPublicAPI
- Execute plugin results on Enter key
- Add WPF framework reference for IPublicAPI compatibility
Create Flow.Launcher.Avalonia project as foundation for migrating from WPF to Avalonia UI framework.
Key components:
- MainWindow with query box and results list (matching WPF layout)
- ViewModels: MainViewModel, ResultsViewModel, ResultViewModel
- Themes/Base.axaml with converted styles from WPF
- FluentAvaloniaUI for Windows 11 styling
- References existing Core/Infrastructure/Plugin projects
The project builds and runs alongside the existing WPF application.
This is Phase 1 of the incremental migration approach.
