Application

This is a desktop (C#/Xamarin/WPF) application to show next trains for an Irish Rail Company for my facourite stations

Note:

- Please spend maximum around 1-3 hours working on this
- We don't expect candidates to finish everything in that timeframe, just make as much progress as possible. 
- Quality and working code is more important than amount tasks done!
- Test can be completed on Windows (InterviewRailWin.sln) or on Mac (InterviewRailMac.sln)

All code should be:

- Clean and readable code.
- Follow Good Coding practices (SOLID, DI, ..)

Goals:

- Fix any code compilation issues
- Mac only: Make the TableView of the Station list resize with the window
- We want the user to have the ability to save a station as a favourite
    - Make a new column on the TableView/DataGrid with a checkbox to mark station as favourite
    - Save the favourites to settings, so they are avaliable after restarting the app
- Modify the MainViewModel to update the station list in every 4 minutes
- Create a unit test for the RailService
    - eg.: test if it's calling the correct endpoint
- Have a separate window for the list of favourites
    - Will need a new service call
    - Should display the Name of the station and the next trains
    - Should show Train's Destination, and Extimated arrival time
        - HINT: on Mac use NSOutlineView to display trains under stations
        - HINT: on Windows use RowDetails
    - When marking a sation favourite, this list must auto update
        - HINT: on Mac the DynamicReactiveTableDataSource is there to help updating the list dynamically
    - Also update the favourite list every minute to show the updated estimated arrival time
        - HINT: use the Reactive Extensions to schedule a refresh on the VM
