Show HN: I built a UWP app to control TP-Link smart plugs
I spent the last few weeks building a UWP app for Windows 10 that finally made it into the Windows Store. The biggest challenge was that UWP seems to have limitations with the .net version for UWP has a different API, particularly around the UDPClient API.
Shameless plug, it's available here https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9PCD9X9M1P5C
Any ideas on what additional features you would like to see? I want to implement an energy monitoring report for those plugs that support it. If anyone has advice about a good free report generator compatible with UWP I'm all ears.
Thanks!

- pcan77 7y agoSorry, can I ask what a UDP app is?
- bochoh 7y agoIt's a Universal Windows App. Apparently it was the "future" of windows development for awhile, but now it's taken a back seat to "legacy" interfaces like winforms.
- pcan77 7y agoOh gotcha! Sorry, posted that somewhat late at night for me haha. Did you use Tuya's API to control the smart plug?
