Module 1: Introduction to Xamarin and Cross-Platform Development

• Cross-platform mobile development landscape: native vs hybrid vs shared code
• Xamarin architecture: Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Android, and Xamarin.Forms
• Setting up Visual Studio with Xamarin workloads on Windows and macOS
• Creating your first Xamarin.Forms application and running on emulators

Module 2: Xamarin.Forms UI Development

• XAML fundamentals: layout, controls, and data binding syntax
• Layout containers: StackLayout, Grid, FlexLayout, and AbsoluteLayout
• Common controls: Entry, Button, ListView, CollectionView, and CarouselView
• Navigation: Shell navigation, NavigationPage, and TabbedPage

Module 3: MVVM Pattern in Xamarin

• Model-View-ViewModel architecture in Xamarin.Forms
• Data binding: OneWay, TwoWay, and OneWayToSource modes
• Commands and ICommand implementation for button interactions
• Community Toolkit MVVM: BaseViewModel and ObservableProperty

Module 4: Platform-Specific Features

• DependencyService: accessing native platform APIs from shared code
• Custom renderers: overriding default control rendering per platform
• Effects: lightweight platform customisations for existing controls
• Accessing device features: camera, GPS, accelerometer, and notifications

Module 5: Data Storage and Networking

• SQLite with sqlite-net-pcl for local data persistence
• Preferences API for lightweight key-value storage
• HttpClient for REST API consumption in Xamarin
• JSON serialisation with System.Text.Json and Newtonsoft.Json

Module 6: Advanced Xamarin Features

• Shell: flyout navigation, tab bars, and URI-based routing
• Animations: basic and complex animations with the Animation API
• Behaviours and triggers for declarative UI interactions
• Localisation and internationalisation for multi-language apps

Module 7: Testing and Deployment

• Unit testing Xamarin apps with xUnit and NUnit
• UI testing with Xamarin.UITest and Appium
• Publishing to Google Play Store and Apple App Store
• App Center for CI/CD, crash reporting, and analytics

Module 8: Capstone Project and Assessment

• Cross-platform mobile app build: shared UI and platform-specific features
• MVVM architecture implementation with data binding and navigation
• REST API integration, local SQLite storage, and App Center deployment
• Final assessment and course certification

Experience in the Industry Learn from Xamarin developers who have built cross-platform mobile applications for enterprises, retail companies, and healthcare organisations delivering consistent iOS and Android experiences from a shared C# codebase.

Backgrounds at the Top Our Xamarin trainers have worked at software development companies and Microsoft partner organisations delivering Xamarin and .NET MAUI mobile solutions across industries.

Clear & Effective Teaching Xamarin.Forms, XAML, MVVM, DependencyService, custom renderers, SQLite, REST APIs, and App Center deployment are explained clearly with practical cross-platform mobile development examples.

Hands-On Learning Focus Students build complete Xamarin.Forms apps, implement MVVM, consume REST APIs, access native device features, and deploy to app stores through structured hands-on lab exercises.

Up-to-Date Knowledge Trainers keep content current with Xamarin's evolution into .NET MAUI, migration paths from Xamarin.Forms, and the latest Microsoft cross-platform mobile development best practices.
