Resilient Xamarin Apps using ASP.NET Core Backends

Most applications require a backend service to do complex processing. In this session, we will see how to build resilient communication with a backend service in the mobile world where we are not always connected to our service. We will focus on integrating with an ASP.NET Core backend service but the techniques we review will be important for any Xamarin application that takes to a backend service. By the end of the of the talk, you will be familiar with several techniques to ensure your app performs well in all situations and learn about a few C# libraries that enable resiliency in your applications.
