Publisher Description: About This Book
If you are a mobile developer with basic knowledge of Xamarin and C# coding, then this book is for you. What You Will Learn
Xamarin is the most powerful cross-platform mobile development framework. If you are interested in creating stunning user interfaces for the iOS and Android mobile platforms using the power of Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms, then this is your ticket. This book will provide you the practical skills required to develop real-world Xamarin applications. You will learn how to implement UI structures and layouts, create customized elements, and write C# scripts to customize layouts. You will create UI layouts from scratch so that you can tweak and customize a given UI layout to suit your needs by using data templates. Moving on, you will use third-party libraries - such as the Razor template engine, which allows you to create your own HTML5 templates within the Xamarin environment to build a book library hybrid solution that uses the SQLite.Net library to store, update, retrieve, and delete information within a local SQLite database. You'll also implement key data-binding techniques that will make your user interfaces dynamic, and create personalized animations and visual effects within your user interfaces using custom renderers and the PlatformEffects API to customize and change the appearance of control elements. |
