These applications can be used for a variety of purposes, from in-field reporting to consumer engagement. However, despite the widespread proliferation of mobile applications, mobile development remains a challenging prospect due to the number of popular operating systems powering these devices. Android, iOS, Universal Windows Platform (UWP)—they’re all unique and require different skills to develop, deploy and maintain applications. At best, building a cross- platform mobile application is an exercise in tedium. At worst, it’s a development nightmare. This is where Xamarin comes in. The Xamarin framework enables developers to build cross- platform mobile applications (with native performance) using a shared codebase—C#. However, that shared codebase only extends to the application logic side of things.
