FPAssistant Suite Software Development Kit (FPS-SDK)

Multiplatform Aviation SDK to assist in your development of Apps: Desktops, Tablets and Mobiles

This is the API documentation and assistance website of FPAssistant Suite Software Development Kit SDK (FPS-SDK) source code repositories and is intended for those contributing to the enhancement of this SDK both as Stakeholders and Programmers. FPS-SDK is designed as a cross platform SDK framework to allow software development teams to development their own applications in the field of aviation covering fields like ADS-B feeds, Flight Procedure Design and other types of aviation logic. The SDK is available in three targets of:

  • .NET Standard 2.0 Class Library - For use with mobile devices such as Apple iOS and Google Android devices that support the .NET Standard 2.0.; this includes Xamarin (Forms & Native), Windows 10 UWP, WinForms along with others.
  • .NET Standard 2.1 Class Library - Is available and created for developers wishing to target .NET Core 3 and/or .NET 5.
  • Windows 10 Class Library (32-bit & 64-bit Support) - For use with Windows 10 OS based hardware i.e. PC, Tablets, Hololens, etc.
  • ARM (32-bit & 64-bit Support) - Support for the ARM processor will be added when Microsoft and other hardware vendors products start to ship or this can added upon request sooner.
  • Portable Class Library (PCL) - For use with mobile devices such as Apple iOS and Google Android devices; this will be depricated once .NET 2.x Standard becomes more widespread from 2018 onwards.
