New functionality:
Now it is possible to take a picture of a letter (or select one from the gallery). Computer Vision (added as an Azure Function) extracts the text and displays it.
Your thoughts on the Azure services and/or Xamarin products that you used:
I feel amazed by how simple is to add powerful functionality -such as Cognitive Services- to a mobile app without actually including everything in the project. Instead, an Azure service is created and you just need to add the reference and service call.
What went well and what did not:
I had to download the .NET Core 3 SDK and update the Azure Storage Emulator to get the Functions project working properly. Other than that, I didn't encounter any issues with the code.
