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.
