Advanced Xamarin Training

About the Training

Advanced Xamarin Training is a comprehensive program designed for software developers who want to specialize in mobile application development and gain advanced skills. Xamarin is a powerful tool for cross-platform mobile application development, allowing developers to build applications for both Android and iOS devices using a single codebase. This training covers advanced features of Xamarin.Forms, user interface design techniques, data management methods, API integrations, access to device features, and performance optimization. The five-day training allows participants to reinforce their skills through hands-on projects by applying their theoretical knowledge in practice.

On the first day, the training begins with an introduction to Xamarin.Forms, focusing on its architecture and cross-platform working principles. Participants will learn the fundamentals of Xamarin.Forms and how to design advanced user interfaces using custom renderers and effects. They will also learn to customize user interface design with control templates and styles. By the end of the first day, participants will have practical experience with these topics through hands-on exercises.

The second day will focus on data binding and management. Topics such as the use of the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern, two-way data binding, commands, and value converters will be covered. Additionally, local data storage using SQLite and data synchronization with REST APIs will be discussed. This section will provide a detailed examination of data management and storage processes, reinforced with practical applications.

The third day will emphasize services and API integrations. Participants will learn about modern RESTful service consumption using HttpClient, data serialization, and JSON parsing. Integration with external APIs and data retrieval will also be key topics of this day. Hands-on exercises will provide practical experience with these subjects.

The fourth day will focus on multimedia and device feature utilization. Participants will learn to access device features such as cameras, GPS, and sensors and perform media playback and recording operations. This section aims to develop skills in creating more interactive and functional applications using device features. Practical exercises will help reinforce these skills.

The final day is dedicated to performance optimization and application publishing. Participants will focus on topics such as application startup time, responsive designs, and memory management. They will gain skills to optimize their applications with Xamarin.Forms performance tips. Additionally, packaging and distribution processes for Android and iOS and publishing procedures on the App Store and Google Play will be thoroughly covered. At the end of the training, participants will complete their projects and carry out testing processes.
