You've probably stumbled upon this researching how to remove the Xbox Game Bar. This gist includes a few different methods you can try. Please note that some of these first options are probably not be available unless you are running an older version of Windows 10.

Uninstalling/Removing the Game Bar (old Windows 10 build GUI options)

(this is no longer an option on any recent Windows 10 build)

1. Press Windows Key or click on the Start menu.
2. Start typing Xbox or Game Bar, until you get the Xbox Game Bar app to appear in the results.
3. Right-click on the app and pick Uninstall. Answer Yes to the prompt, and wait for the process to finish.

First Timers Only website idea

I wrote a blogpost on Medium last week about something I've been doing with my open source project. Check that out first: https://medium.com/@kentcdodds/first-timers-only-78281ea47455

It's had a fantastic response and people are enthusiastic about the idea. In an effort to encourage more projects to participate, I decided to file an issue on the up-for-grabs website repo and ask them if they would be willing to have a section dedicated to projects with first-timers-only issues.

If you checkout that issue, you see that Scott Hanselman has bought the domain firsttimersonly.com and wants to turn it into a one pager about the idea with links/resources/etc.

Share Counts

I have always struggled with getting all the various share buttons from Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, etc to align correctly and to not look like a tacky explosion of buttons. Seeing a number of sites rolling their own share buttons with counts, for example The Next Web I decided to look into the various APIs on how to simply return the share count.

If you want to roll up all of these into a single jQuery plugin check out Sharrre

Many of these API calls and methods are undocumented, so anticipate that they will change in the future. Also, if you are planning on rolling these out across a site I would recommend creating a simple endpoint that periodically caches results from all of the APIs so that you are not overloading the services will requests.
