This book is possibly the most in-depth resource on Xamarin I've read thus far.My review would be far too long if I mention everything it covers, but know that it covers what you need to know about the tiers of the .NET infrastructure, the difference between Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms, and incorporating Azure Services (Cosmos DB, Application Insights), and much more.This was an excellent resource to refresh my knowledge and get up-to-date on using Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms.

The book takes the reader from the basics to the advanced in mobile development using Xamarin.The content is up to date and shows the use of .NET 5. The author also covers the use of features and services in the cloud using Azure. The author makes clear the use of modern development patterns.This book is, in fact, a complete book for .NET mobile developers.

As a reader of the original, I was excited to have the opportunity to read the 2nd edition.LIke the OG, it is concise and easy to read along. However, it contains some very important technological updates. The future is Azure and cloud computing and this new edition doesnt hold back on getting you involved.This is a great resource for those looking to learn xamarin or continue improving your skills.

The effort put in by the author to bring about such a lucid piece is really commendable. With a delicate balance between theory and hands-on assignments, this book is a must read for anyone venturing into app development using .NET with the help of Azure services. An added feature is the journey through SDLC that the book takes you through, fascinating at the least.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
