Tracking issue for Developer Experience

[Perksey]

Summary of feature

This is a tracking issue for the various improvements to developer experience we want to make over the course of 2.X, to make getting started with Silk.NET much easier.

The main points identified:

• Make trying out Silk.NET easier
  • We will create a Silk.NET Interactive extension for .NET Interactive, aiming to be usable in Jupyter. This will be a full IWindow implementation atop SwiftShader using ANGLE, EGL, ImageSharp, and SignalR on the server side and interact.js on the client side.
  • The base of Silk.NET Interactive will also be reused to make a "Try Silk.NET" web experience powered by Azure Functions.
• Make learning Silk.NET easier
  • We will create written, web versions of our tutorials in the repo for OpenGL using the aforementioned Silk.NET Interactive extension via Jupyter Notebooks.
• Make using Silk.NET easier
  • This is pretty much already as easy as it can be without this being a whole work item unto itself, but creating pre-built binaries for common scenarios in OpenGL and OpenXR has been something we've noticed could be useful to our community.
