# Avalonia Layout with Zafiro.Avalonia

> Master modern, clean, and maintainable Avalonia UI layouts.
> **Focus on semantic containers, shared styles, and minimal XAML.**

## 🎯 Selective Reading Rule

**Read ONLY files relevant to the layout challenge!**

| `icons.md` | Icon usage with `IconExtension` and `IconOptions` | Adding and customizing icons |

## ✅ Checklist for Clean Layouts

- [ ] **Used semantic containers?** (e.g., `HeaderedContainer` instead of `Border` with manual header)
- [ ] **Avoided redundant properties?** Use shared styles in `axaml` files.
- [ ] **Minimized nesting?** Flatten layouts using `EdgePanel` or generic components.
- [ ] **Icons via extension?** Use `{Icon fa-name}` and `IconOptions` for styling.
- [ ] **Behaviors over code-behind?** Use `Interaction.Behaviors` for UI-logic.
- [ ] **Avoided Converters?** Prefer ViewModel properties or Behaviors unless necessary.

---

## ❌ Anti-Patterns

**DON'T:**
- Use hardcoded colors or sizes (literals) in views.
- Create deep nesting of `Grid` and `StackPanel`.
- Repeat visual properties across multiple elements (use Styles).
- Use `IValueConverter` for simple logic that belongs in the ViewModel.

**DO:**
- Use `DynamicResource` for colors and brushes.
- Extract repeated layouts into generic components.
- Leverage `Zafiro.Avalonia` specific panels like `EdgePanel` for common UI patterns.
