Xamarin.Forms is a cross-platform framework for building native iOS, Android, and Windows apps in C#. 96% of the code you write—including the business logic and UI components—can be shared across platforms, making the framework one of those most efficient for mobile engineering. This course introduces Xamarin.Forms, and provides an overview of the app development workflow in Visual Studio. Follow along to build your first app, and review the project structure, layout system, basic controls, and different app styles you can create with Xamarin.Forms. Plus, see how to use platform-specific code to access device features such as the camera. The practice files for this course are free, and the instructors have included exercises to apply what you've learned along the way.
