I wrote a PoC (Proof of Concept) a few years ago of recompiling Xamarin iOS apps to Android without code changes and we released a few apps using that. It is especially handy for LoB (Line of Business) / internal apps which actually are very usable like this. Clients loved it as they only had to pay once. It has parts of the Core Graphics and Core Animation implemented as the last app I ported with it was heavy on those.
This was before Forms came along. No clue if anyone would be interested in it, but i'm cleaning up the code to put it on github as open source.
- kalyanganjam 10y agoThat would be quite interesting to see(and use?).
- wingerlang 10y agoIs it better than Forms? It sounds the same, so I doubt it would be very interested for Xamarin.Forms users.
- tluyben2 10y agoWell it is different in that you write apps with the iOS API and recompile for Android. So it is an implementation of the iOS API on top of the Android API. It was a PoC so 'better' is not really a related term :)
- wingerlang 10y agoI see. I guess that is different.
- udkl 10y agoThis would be interesting. I'm looking to create a MVP for a game like app and am researching ways to make it cross-platform compatible without sacrificing performance.
- tluyben2 10y agoCheck my profile and drop me a mail with stuff you would need for that I can tell you if it would work.
