Materialdesigninxamltoolkit: Cannot Rebuild The Project

[oSethoum]

ERRORS WHEN TRYING TO REBUILD THE PROJECT

[TysonMN]

Can you share the output of the build?

@TysonMN

The output file is so long here's a link
output.txt

I noticed these issues too in the dependencies, but all the dll's files are available and i referenced them, but still getting the same issues.

[TysonMN]

The output says

Run "dotnet tool restore" to make the "paket" command available.
... The command "dotnet paket restore" exited with code 1.

Try running dotnet tool restore.

@TysonMN Thanks, it's solved now the build was successful.
The file .config/dotnet-tools.json was locked i think it's because i downloaded it as zip file and i didn't clone the project with git.

now the build is successful, but i didn't find the demo executable file in the debug folder, i can't run it either from vs studio.

You are trying to execute the project MaterialDesignThemes.Wpf. In the "Solution Explorer", right-click the project MaterialDesignDemo and select "Set as Startup Project". Then try to run.

@TysonMN Thank You so much sir, am new to WPF and C# in general, i didn't notice that, you just taught me something ❤

[TysonMN]

Glad to help :)

I just created PR #2145, which will help to prevent situations like that were someone tries to execute a project that is not executable.

If all your issues are resolved, then you can close this issue.

[oSethoum]

All issues resolved thanks !.

But what causes this problem?

[TysonMN]

I think it is the integration of paket and Visual Studio. paket is definitely a more capable NuGet package manager, but my opinion is that it is not that much better to be worth the effort because of issues like this.
