Exposed functionality

• It provides a dropdown list from which you can choose which demo do you want to run.
• It shows some minimal description about the chosen demo.
• It lets you start, stop and re-run any demo.
• While the demo is running:
  • it prompts the logs with auto-scrolling and;
  • it auto-updates the statistics.
• When you stop the demo:
  • you can scrutinize the logs and;
  • check the final statistics.
• When you start a new demo or restart the previous one then the logs and statistics are reset.

Structure

• The MainWindow.xaml defines the UI components and their layout.
• The MainWindow.xaml.cs
  • handles the interactions
  • uses reflection to invoke the selected demo
  • updates the UI whenever there is a progress change
  • handles all sort of errors.
