// If you don't want to pull the whole [Splat](https://github.com/paulcbetts/splat) library over just for colors,
// here are a couple functions to help.
// Store your color values as hex-based `long`s and just convert them to native colors when you use them.
// NOTE: iOS uses RGBA floats (0..1) and Android uses ARGB ints (0..255) when converting.

// Usage example:
SomeView.SetBackgroundColor(MyAppColors.SomeGrayHighlight.AsNative());

// Core library can hold your colors:
public static class MyAppColors {
