Book DescriptionXamarin.Forms is a lightweight cross-platform development toolkit for building applications with a rich user interface.
In this book you'll start by building projects that explain the Xamarin.Forms ecosystem to get up and running with building cross-platform applications. We'll increase in difficulty throughout the projects, making you learn the nitty-gritty of Xamarin.Forms offerings. You'll gain insights into the architecture, how to arrange your app's design, where to begin developing, what pitfalls exist, and how to avoid them. The book contains seven real-world projects, to get you hands-on with building rich UIs and providing a truly cross-platform experience. It will also guide you on how to set up a machine for Xamarin app development. You'll build a simple to-do application that gets you going, then dive deep into building advanced apps such as messaging platform, games, and machine learning, to build a UI for an augmented reality project.
By the end of the book, you'll be confident in building cross-platforms and fitting Xamarin.Forms toolkits in your app development. You'll be able to take the practice you get from this book to build applications that comply with your requirements.

Who this book is forThis book is for mobile application developers who want to start building native mobile apps using the powerful Xamarin.Forms and C#. Working knowledge of C#, .NET, and Visual Studio is required.
Johan has been working with Xamarin since the days of MonoTouch and Mono for Android and it all started with writing a game.

Daniel is a developer and architect that has his passion for developing mobile apps powered by the cloud. Daniel fell in love with Xamarin in the early days of Xamarin when he realized that he could use C# even for iOS- and Android apps and that he could share code with the Windows apps he also was building. But Daniel started to build mobile apps long before that, Android apps with Java and even Java ME apps (a long, long time ago). Daniel enjoying sharing his knowledge, for example by speaking at conferences, blogging or recording the podcast, The Code Behind. Daniel working at the company tretton37 in Sweden and he has experience for working with both local- and global customers.
