Building great apps with Xamarin.Forms

on YouTube ↗41m

" summary

Shows concrete recipes for making Xamarin.Forms apps feel native: implements custom renderers (iOS demo creating native UIButton replacements), adds effects (shadow via platform effect), and injects platform views or use Forms Native for mixed UIs. Demonstrates behaviors for phone formatting, triggers and animations for interactivity, and gives measurable performance changes from compiled XAML, compiled bindings, layout/layer compression, Android Fast Render and ListView recycling — all working in sample apps.
