API reference

`Binarymission.WPF.Skinning`

class `BinarySkin`	A skin: the colours controls are drawn in, each named for the place it is used, with the corner rounding and window effects that go with them.
enum `BinarySkinColor`	The colours a `BinarySkin` is made of. Each one names the place it is used, not a hue, so that a control asks for "the text on a surface" and gets whatever the skin in force says that is.
enum `BinarySkinDensity`	How closely controls that follow `BinarySkinManager` pack their commands.
class `BinarySkinFormatException`	A skin file that is not JSON, or is JSON that does not describe a skin. The message names the line and column of the mistake.
class `BinarySkinKeys`	The keys `BinarySkinManager` publishes the skin in force under, in the application's resources, for a control or a window to draw with.
class `BinarySkinManager`	Holds the skin in force for the whole application, publishes it in the application's resources under `BinarySkinKeys`, and says when it changes.
class `BinarySkinProblem`	Two colours of a skin that are too alike: text that would be hard to read, or a change of state a user could not see.
class `BinarySkinSerializer`	Reads and writes skins as JSON files.
enum `BinarySkinTheme`	The skins built into the library, which `Create(BinarySkinTheme)` makes and a skin file names as the one it starts from.
class `BinarySkins`	Makes the built-in skins.
class `ColorContrast`	Measures how well one colour reads on another, and moves a colour just far enough to read.
class `WindowsAppearance`	The light or dark mode and the accent colour the user has chosen in Windows.
