The app is a demo of Xamarin.Forms cross platform mobile development brought by ScienceSoft. As exemplified with discounts apps (listing and plotting on a map discounts locations for ScienceSoft employees) one can see common UI structure and controls utilized across platforms. The app is built for 3 targets (Android, iOS, Windows Phone) and reuses 85% of C# code (~2000 SLOC out of 2400).
Though tricky and non-trivial UI scenarios and platform specific capabilities may require creating platform specific code we can testify the current state of affairs with Xamarin.Forms:
- The platform abstracts much of a hard work;
- The platform gives rich customization capabilities to implement UI cases and avoid using custom "renders";
- The platform perfectly fits data driven and enterprise application development saving effort and time.
