Installing tizen studio

Connect Everything

As diverse devices are getting smarter and more connected, there is a strong need for a software platform for integrated services with connected products. Tizen is designed for this and has been advancing to connect everything. To support different types of devices with seamless user experience, Tizen categorizes the features and functions as profiles. There are currently 4 profiles and the amount will grow as more products are included in the ecosystem. In the near future, lots of Internet-connected devices are anticipated to be on the market and IoT (Internet of Things) services will pervade everyone’s daily life. Tizen is moving forward to the future of everything connected.

Sign app with Certificates

On commercialized products you need to setup certificates manually using IDE 🙁

 rm -rf .sign Release Debug # we will rebuild it using IDE :(
 ~/tizen-studio/tools/sdb devices # observe your device SN, to replace instead of ${user}
 List of devices attached 
 # 0000FFFF0000FFFF         device          SM-Z200F

If lucky you’ll get ~/SamsungCertificate/${user}/
with author.p12, distributor.csr, distributor.p12, distributor.pri, author.crt, distributor.crt, author.pri, author.pub, author.csr

And backup ~/tizen-studio-data/keystore/author.p12 is same to ~/SamsungCertificate/user/author.p12

A file like this one, will be used to store password and sign your tpk

PO File Editor

The PO file editor is used to edit files to generate compiled gettext files, which are used by Tizen platform applications to localize the user interface.

NoteThere is no specific wizard to create the files. To create a file, go to New > Other > General > File and save the file with the extension.

Figure: PO file editor

• To open the PO file editor, double-click the file in the Project Explorer view.
• To add a new string key, click the Add String Key icon.

  An empty row is added to the string table. Fill in the details for the row.

• To remove a string key, right-click the key and select Remove.
• To add a language, click the Add Language icon.

  In the Add Languages dialog, select the language code item you want.

  Figure: Adding a language

• To remove a language, in the Supporting Languages pane, click the Remove Language icon and select the applicable language code item in the Remove Languages dialog.

Enhancement of Development Environment and Core Component

• Tizen .NET

  It is the development environment for developing high quality and high performance application in C#. There is an enhancement in the Tizen Development environment in Tizen 5.5.

  The latest Xamarin.Forms 4.0 and the latest .NET Core 3.0 are now supported. Xamarin.Forms on Tizen .NET is a complete cross-platform UI toolkit that allows you to create native UI. The latest .NET Core supports unloading DLL, AOT, pre-loading, pre-initialization, Tiered complications and MPGO for enhancing application launching time. Also, there is memory optimization by reducing relocation of DLL files, pre-loading for resource sharing and so on. The .NET Core 3.0 Runtime is faster, lighter than its previous version. With all these enhancements, the application launching time is reduced by 28% and memory usage is reduced by 20%. New Tizen extension for the official visual studio for Mac is also released in Tizen 5.5. The key features of the Tizen extension are the Tizen.NET application development environment, the Tizen IDE tools, and the application debugging using .NET Core debugger.

• Watchface Complication API

  Tizen 5.5 provides an easy way to create custom complications in a watch face. These APIs provide various kinds of complication types. You can deploy various kinds of complication services such as health, battery, air pollution, and so on by using these APIs.

• Supports Lottie animation

  The Lottie animations are supported in Tizen 5.5. Lottie was named by AirBnB. It is a library that renders ‘After Effects animations’ in real time. The animation is exported as a Lottie file which has a JSON format. The file contains information about visual shapes such as rectangle, circle, path and fill methods like the traditional vector graphics elements.

• Multi-assistant Framework

  It aims to support various AI assistants at the same time for better usability. The framework defines a common interface for making an assistant of the multi-assistant framework. It also provides an expandable wake-up engine that recognizes invocation keyword for each assistant and supports to add a new keyword.

• Multi-device distributed web engine

  It is designed for both memory resource requirements mitigation and JavaScript execution speed enhancement to overcome the resource constraints of the low-end devices. With the prior multi-process design of the web engine, the memory usage of the renderers becomes significant as multiple tabs are created. CPU resource consumption of the renderer processes is also substantial as web applications get complicated. To manage hardware resources and to make resource usage predictable in low-end devices, the multi-device distributed web engine introduces features for offloading renderer processes over the network to resource-free devices while the browser process runs on the local low-end device.

• User Awareness Framework

  Smart devices could provide useful services based on the user presence context. Tizen 5.5 supports User Awareness Framework based on multiple sensors. Currently, Wi-Fi, BLE, motion, and light sensors are supported and it could be extended to support other types of sensors based plug-in architecture.

Tizen .NET Features and Components

Tizen .NET enables you to build .NET applications with Xamarin.Forms and Tizen .NET framework. Xamarin.Forms allows you to easily create a user interface, and TizenFX API provides numerous interfaces to much of the hardware that is found in modern TV, mobile, wearable, and IoT devices.

Figure: Tizen .NET architecture

Tizen .NET consists of the following main components:

• .NET Core

  is an , general-purpose development platform maintained by Microsoft and the .NET community on . It is cross-platform (supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux) and can be used to build device, cloud, and IoT applications.

  See to learn more about .NET Core, including its characteristics, supported languages and frameworks, and key APIs.

• Xamarin.Forms

  provides cross-platform APIs, which allow you to create user interfaces that can be shared across platforms. The Visual Studio Tools for Tizen enables Tizen support for Xamarin.Forms.

• Tizen.Wearable.CircularUI

  provides Tizen wearable-specific user interfaces. It is a set of extension APIs of Xamarin.Forms. Tizen.Wearable.CircularUI APIs are supported only on Tizen wearable devices with Tizen .NET support, unlike the Xamarin.Forms which support cross platforms.

• TizenFX API

  TizenFX API allows applications to call into platform-specific functionality from the shared code. This functionality enables Xamarin.Forms applications to do things a native application can do, without causing the portable part of the application to become littered with operating system-specific details.

  TizenFX supports C# APIs, which expose Tizen-specific features such as Tizen application framework, account management, location services, media services, and connectivity.

Visual Studio Tools for Tizen

Visual Studio Tools for Tizen provides Tizen-specific tools to improve your productivity.

You can create a Tizen .NET application project with the Project Wizard tool in Visual Studio Tools for Tizen. When you create a new project with a specific template, Project Wizard uses it to automatically create basic functionalities, and default project files and folders for the application.

The Visual Studio Tools for Tizen extension is registered in Visual Studio Marketplace. You can install the extension from Visual Studio Marketplace in the Visual Studio IDE. To download Visual Studio 2017 for Tizen, click . To use the latest version of Visual Studio, download .
