Sharpnado.Maui.Shadows
Sharpnado.Maui.Shadows adds high-quality, customizable drop shadows to any .NET MAUI view on Android, iOS, Windows, and MacCatalyst. Define multiple shades per view with Color, Opacity, BlurRadius, and Offset, and match corners with CornerRadius for pixel-perfect results. Android supports a selectable blur algorithm via BlurType (Gpu or StackBlur). Built on modern MAUI handlers with platform-optimized implementations (RenderEffect/RenderScript on Android, CALayer on iOS/MacCatalyst, WinUI 3 Composition on Windows), weak events to prevent leaks, and global bitmap caching for performance. Includes XAML markup extensions (SingleShade, ImmutableShades, ShadeStack, NeumorphismShades) for concise, reusable definitions.
