Doubt about Xamarin-Forms

Question

Good night,

I am starting a TCC project with development for mobile platform and my group we are developing using the platform Xamarin Forms, my doubt is about the creation of the project, because we are trying to make a communication via web-service and we are only able to add the required libraries to Microsoft.Net.HTTP and Newtonsoft using the cross-Plataform project that does not have the drag and drop option to create the views, there is some way to use this drag and drop to develop views with cross Plataform or it is just using XML files same ?

Answer 1

Unable to build views with drag-and-drop components as there is no layout editor for this.

The method of building the views is actually through XAML (and is much better than it looks on a first contact).

For starters, you can use instant preview of XAML like the Forms Previewer or the Gorilla Player (This second is the most popular).

In this article, Adam Padley gives some tips on how Gorilla Player works.
