Cross Platform Mobile Dev with C# and Xamarin 3 (RADNUG 8/19/14)
- 1. CROSS PLATFORM MOBILE DEV WITH C# AND XAMARIN 3 Ed Snider Aug 19 2014 Rappahannock Area Developers .NET Users Group (RADNUG)
- 2. CONTENT Introduction The Problem with Native Mobile App Dev The Benefits of Multi-Platform Mobile Dev with C# How? - MVVM - Share Code - Xamarin Share UI Code w/ Xamarin.Forms DEMO
- 3. INTRODUCTION Ed Snider - @edsnider | www.edsnider.net Developer at InfernoRed Technology Co-Organizer of NoVA Mobile C# Developers’ Group www.infernored.com @infernoredtech www.novamobiledev.org @novamobiledev
- 4. THE PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL NATIVE MOBILE APP DEV… Native mobile apps are great but here’s the problem: Several Platforms: Windows, iOS, Android Several Languages: C#, Objective-C, Java Maintenance nightmares Customers and end-users suffer
- 5. THE BENEFITS OF MULTI-PLATFORM NATIVE MOBILE APP DEV WITH C# Develop for all platforms with a single language – C# - using Xamarin Harness the power of the .NET framework Single solution with shared code Unified and consistent maintenance/testing Feature parity across platforms = happy end users
- 6. HOW?
- 7. LEVERAGE THE MVVM PATTERN View (UI) Data Binding Commands ViewModel Model Platform Specific Service Implementations Service Interfaces Connectivity Location Camera Etc…
- 8. SHARE CODE! Windows iOS Android View / UI View / UI Platform Specifics Platform Specifics Portable Class Library (PCL) ViewModels Models Core App Library View / UI Platform Specifics Services, Business Logic, Service Access, Data Access, etc.
- 9. XAMARIN… Xamarin is built on Mono Allows native app compilation on Android and iOS using C# 100% API Coverage – All iOS and Android APIs are exposed as C# class libraries Up-to-date with API releases from Apple and Google
- 10. WINDOWS APIS 100% Coverage
- 11. IOS APIS 100% Coverage
- 12. ANDROID APIS 100% Coverage
- 13. HOW XAMARIN WORKS C# + .NET Runtime Native UI Native Performance
- 14. XAMARIN DEVELOPMENT TOOLS Xamarin for Visual Studio Xamarin Studio for Windows and Mac
- 15. SHARE UI CODE, TOO!
- 16. XAMARIN.FORMS Set of APIs that abstract platform specific UI elements and behaviors Write UI code once and it is rendered natively across iOS, Android and Window Phone Use C# and/or XAML Ships as NuGet packages Views can now live in the PCL Mix and match with platform APIs Shared UI Code
- 17. XAMARIN.FORMS CONTROLS Pages (e.g., Master-detail, Tabs, Carousel) Layouts (e.g., Stack, Grid) Views (e.g., Button, Label) Cells (e.g., templates for table/list items)
- 18. XAMARIN.FORMS PAGES Xamarin.Forms.Page Represents UI screens Page = Activity on Android Page = View Controller on iOS Page = Page on Windows Phone Xamarin.Forms Pages Documentation
- 19. XAMARIN.FORMS LAYOUTS Represents UI containers Logically structures UI elements Xamarin.Forms Layouts Documentation
- 20. XAMARIN.FORMS VIEWS Represents UI controls Implemented natively and platform specific Entry = EditText on Android Entry = UITextField on iOS Entry = Textbox on Windows Phone Xamarin.Forms Views Documentation
- 21. SOME OTHER COOL THINGS ABOUT XAMARIN… Component Store: http://components.xamarin.com/ .NET Mobility Scanner: http://scan.xamarin.com/ F#: http://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/ fsharp/fsharp_support_overview/ Xamarin Test Cloud: http://xamarin.com/test-cloud

Notas do Editor
- If you are a windows developer you will be used to these name spaces. These are the core .NET base libraries that we know and love. If you mix in windows phone and windows store development you get new namespaces Windows. And Microsoft. With platform specific APIs
- Xamarin gives you the best of both worlds with full support for the .NET Framework (your System. Libraries) Then they create C# bindings for every API in iOS and Android As you can see here there are a few, CoreGraphics, CoreMotion, etc, These are your platform specific bits to take advantage of everything in iOS
- Then they do the same thing for Android so here you get the Android specifics Renderscript, NFC to do cool phone tapping of data transfer And text to speech apis to make your app shine
- On iOS Xamarin Compiles the C# down to IL (intermediate language) Then Xamarin create LLVM bit code Then the LLVM bit code runs through the same LLVM Compiler and Optimizer that apple users for objective-c code Creating the final native arm binary. On Android they use an advanced compiler and linking to IL and then JIT to create native instructions at runtime for optimal performance which often can be faster than the dalvik runtime.
