PROFILE
Johann Dirry
Contributed to MaterialDesignInXamlToolkit by porting Material Color Utilities to .NET, including a backport to .NET 4.6.2, enabling consistent color tooling across legacy and modern .NET applications. Developed robust C# implementations for color blending, contrast analysis, and dynamic color models, supported by comprehensive unit tests to ensure reliability. Introduced a foundational MD3 motion library for WPF, establishing reusable animation patterns and easing functions. Enhanced test coverage and maintainability by refining testing frameworks and optimizing test logic. Leveraged C#, XAML, and MVVM to deliver dynamic color palette tools and improve UI design, accelerating feature delivery and improving developer experience.

Oct 1, 2025Month 2025-10: Delivered the .NET port of Material Color Utilities with a backport to .NET 4.6.2, enabling use in legacy and modern .NET apps. Implemented robust C# equivalents for core utilities including color blending, contrast analysis, dislike detection, dynamic color specifications, and color models CAM16 and HCT. Added comprehensive unit tests to ensure correctness and regressions are caught early. Updated solution and project properties to support multi-targeting and long-term maintainability. This work unlocks cross-platform consistency for Material Design coloring in .NET ecosystems and sets the stage for broader adoption by .NET developers.
