How can I generate or add resourcedesigner.cs file in a dotnet Maui project?

Question

I'm trying to add resourcedesigner.cs file to my Maui project.

I know the file can be generated but what I'm trying to do is to take some files from a Xamarin project and put it in my Maui project to implement the scan of zebra with intent.

I tried adding the file manually but I got some error of Xamarin essentials missing and I was told not to add Xamarin nuget packages to my Maui project.

Maui Internally Handlers ResourceDesigner you don't need that class add the files in your Resource folder in your Android project rest should automatically work, for an example you can check my library here:

https://github.com/FreakyAli/Maui.FreakyControls/tree/master/MAUI.FreakyControls/MAUI.FreakyControls/Platforms/Android/Resources

Notice how it has a Resources folder with the general Android folders but no Designer file... but it still is able to use Resources.
