dotnetconf 2014! Watch session: http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/dotnetConf/2014/Developing-Native-iOS-Android-and-Windows-Apps-with-Xamarin Developing Native iOS, Android, and Windows Apps with Xamarin Mobile continues to expand and evolve at a rapid pace. Users expect great native experiences in the palm of their hands on each and every platform. A major hurdle for developers today is that each platform has its own programming language and tools to learn and maintain. Even if you tackle the burden of learning Objective-C and Java you will still have to manage multiple code bases, which can be a nightmare for any development team large or small. It doesn't have to be this way as you can create Android, iOS, Windows Phone, and Windows Store apps leveraging the .NET framework and everything you love about C#. This is an introduction to Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms with Azure Mobile Services.

René Ruppert shows you how to easily integrate the power of three different Azure Cognitive Services into a Xamarin application. Given that nobody can decipher René's handwriting, he's going to use the power of Azure to turn it into clear text and use that as input for further processing.

Xamarin 3 introduces enhancements to the Xamarin platform including a new iOS designer, IDE updates, and Xamarin.Forms. Xamarin.Forms is a set of APIs that allow developers to write cross-platform mobile apps using shared C# code that renders natively on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. It includes UI elements like pages, layouts and views. The new iOS designer integrated in Xamarin Studio and Visual Studio supports iOS 6/7 storyboards and auto-layout. Xamarin Studio also received updates like NuGet package manager and F# support.

XamarinDevDays covered the traditional Xamarin approach of writing separate UI code for each platform versus using Xamarin.Forms which allows for more code sharing with a single shared UI code and backend. Xamarin.Forms was discussed in depth including over 40 pages, layouts and controls that are built from code behind or XAML, two-way data binding, navigation, animation API and more. Examples were provided of XAML code for a tabbed page app with login functionality to demonstrate how Xamarin.Forms can be used to build full apps with shared UI and backend code across platforms.

MotionLayout is a new layout that manages motion and widget animations in Android applications. It is a subclass of ConstraintLayout that allows fully declarative animation definitions. MotionLayout uses constraint sets and transitions to define animations that are triggered by user interactions like swipes or clicks. Developers can preview animations in a tool and define different constraint sets and transitions to animate layout property and attribute changes between states. Case studies are provided that demonstrate expanding and collapsing views as well as moving elements on the screen using MotionLayout.

The document also covers other topics like the application bar, push notifications, and Windows Phone development best practices.

This document discusses window management in an operating system. It proposes using a manager pattern with multiple independent instances (AppWindows) to control windows. Key points: 1. An AppWindowManager would manage the lifecycles of multiple AppWindow instances, handling launch/kill requests. 2. AppWindows would be minimal units wrapping a web browser iframe. Each would maintain their own states like visibility independently. 3. Multiple patterns are used, including manager pattern to coordinate instances, observer pattern for events, and finite state machine for transitions. 4. A hierarchy of managers would control interactions across windows, handling visibility, orientation, layout for different "levels" like system dialogs vs apps.
