##Get started
- Have a look at my blog posts about TFrameStand
- My CodeRage X session (50 min video covering all the basic functionalities)
##Demo projects
- wait: a wait splashscreen with running animation and opacity. Can be show on the top of a whole form or a single FMX control. Runs a task on a background thread and keeps UI responsive.
- lightbox: achieves the popular lightbox effect to show different kind of content (pictures, text, data) using a consistent UI. Also provides an example of CommonActions use (the Close button) and provides fade-in animation of content
- material_button: a simple example to overlay a button on the form or any other control, with sliding animations.
- ViewAndDialogs: some Material Design-like transition to show a view (employee's details) and a dialog (rate a picture).
- PictureWall: show pictures in a TFlowLayout with a fading in transition
- ButtonSet: mimics Android's Camera toolbuttons laying over your content.
- EditHelper: adds easy to customize buttons or controls to any TEdit.
