Some organizations are so mature, they are able to blow away and overwrite their production environment up to 1,600 times a day. That’s right; destroy the environment with no […]

We’ve been developing Xamarin.Forms apps since the framework’s inception and have watched the tool mature into a solid tool for building native, cross-platform experiences. More than once we’ve heard hesitations about using Xamarin.Forms because “it doesn’t feel as polished.” We understand where that idea comes from (many are basing that opinion on early iterations of […]
