This is a fork of https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-forms-book-samples as at April 17, 2018. The sample projects use package references (PackageReference in .csproj files). Every not SAP (Shared Asset Project) solution contains two Xamarin.Forms projects: Net Standard 2.0 and legacy Portable Class Library. You can refer to they in apps projects (IOS, Android, UWP) alternatively. The UWP projects are built with Windows 10 Fall Creators Update 10.0 Build Number 16299. The projects were build using Visual Studio Community 2017.
Typical organization of a solution. The solutions includes three application projects:
- iOS: iPhone and iPads
- Droid: Android phones and tablets
- UWP: The Universal Windows Platform, targeting Windows 10 tablets and desktop computers, and Windows 10 Mobile
and two Xamarin.Forms projects
- .Portable: Portable Class Library
- .NetStandard: NetStandard 2.0 Class Library
You can change references in the application projects to switch variant of Xamarin Forms
