โ˜•โœจ CrossBrew โ€“ A Modern Coffee Shop App Built with Uno Platform

AI Challenge for Cross-Platform Apps - WOW Factor Submission

๐ŸŒŸ What I Built

I created CrossBrew, a warm and visually stunning cross-platform coffee shop app built using Uno Platform + .NET.
My theme is inspired by premium cafรฉ brands โ€” cozy ambience, smooth menu browsing, and a stylish UI that instantly gives users a coffee-house vibe.

The app brings life to the screen with:

โ˜• Beautiful drink collections

๐Ÿฐ Soft, rounded modern UI elements

๐ŸŒˆ Smooth transitions and clean layouts

๐Ÿ“‹ Mock menu data for drinks, offers, and combos

๐ŸŽจ Aesthetic coffee-inspired color palette

Everything is developed from a single shared codebase, yet feels native on every platform!


๐Ÿš€ Demo

This project demonstrates how a single Uno Platform codebase can deliver a premium app experience across multiple device types.
The UI is fully functional with mock data and offers a smooth, responsive layout.


๐ŸŒ Cross-Platform Magic

CrossBrew runs seamlessly on:

๐Ÿค– Android

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Windows

๐ŸŒ WebAssembly (Browser)

I built the UI once using XAML + C#, and Uno Platform handled the magic of making it look native across all platforms.
No rewriting layouts, no repeated UI code โ€” just clean and consistent cross-platform development. โœจ


๐ŸŽฎ Interactive Features

CrossBrew includes a set of smooth and engaging UI interactions designed to make the experience lively and fun:

๐Ÿงพ Smooth scrolling drink lists

๐Ÿ”„ Category tab switching (Hot, Cold, Snacks, etc.)

โญ Add to Favorites toggle

๐Ÿงบ Mock Add-to-Cart interactions

๐Ÿ“ฑ Responsive layout that adjusts beautifully to all screen sizes

Every interaction is crafted to feel natural, soft, and enjoyable.


๐Ÿ’ซ The Wow Factor

The highlight of the CrossBrew app is the Hero Drink Showcase Screen ๐ŸŒŸ โ€” a visually rich section that presents a featured drink using premium layout styling and modern design principles.

What truly creates the โ€œWOWโ€ moment is:
โœจ The exact same UI running perfectly on Android, Windows, and Web โ€” with zero platform-specific code.

Everyone who interacted with it reacted the same way:

โ€œWaitโ€ฆ this looks like a native app on all platforms? Thatโ€™s amazing!โ€

CrossBrew shows how fun, fast, and powerful cross-platform development becomes with Uno Platform.
