Developing Reusable Cross-Platform Plugins for Xamarin

Join us for our June event sponsored and hosted by ILM Professional Service ( http://ilmservice.com/ ) in Edina. This is a FREE event and a great opportunity for networking and the latest insights in mobile development.

Developing Reusable Cross-Platform Plugins for Xamarin

If you’ve done a moderate amount of Xamarin development, you have probably written some abstractions over platform-specific APIs. You may have also used Effects or Custom Renderers in Xamarin.Forms to achieve this – but what approaches are there for creating your reusable shared code that take advantage of native device capabilities without depending on Xamarin.Forms? In this session, we will explore various code-sharing strategies and architectures you can use to create plugins and walkthrough designing a simple example plugin from scratch, all the way down to creating NuGet packages.
