Syncfusion Hosts Xamarin Dev Days

Syncfusion sponsored another Xamarin Dev Days event at Hablis Hotel in Chennai to showcase how developers can build cross-platform native UIs and provide attendees with a focused, hands-on learning experience. About 60 developers attended the event.


Harikrishnan of Syncfusion introduced Xamarin. He spoke about how Visual Studio is well integrated with Xamarin and other platforms, basic environment setup, native Android and OS mobile development using Xamarin, architecting mobile apps, simplifying development, plugins, and how to deploy images using cognitive services.


Rohit Vipin Matthews, an associate technical architect at CES challenged why they should try Xamarin, and explained the basics of Xamarin, cross-platform native UIs with Xamarin.Forms, latest and greatest in Xamarin.Forms, and the future of Xamarin.

Nish Anil, senior program manager for Xamarin at Microsoft, began the session with connected and disconnected apps with Azure Mobile Apps. He challenged the developers to develop native apps that stand out and keep the attention of the users.


He talked about the importance of Azure Mobile Apps, and told how powerful and flexible it is.  He also explained cross-platform client SDK and open source C#. He showed how to build a backend, create tables, and how Xamarin supports offline syncing, push notifications with notification hub, and authentication.


The afternoon session consisted of hands on lab on connecting mobile apps with Azure with members of Syncfusion’s technical team assisting the participants. Participants got to work on a new Xamarin Forms app connected to Azure

The participants had many opinions on the conference. Here is what they had to say:

Audippa Naidu of CES – “I have been using Telerik controls so far. Since I have heard a lot of good things about Syncfusion, I am planning to use Syncfusion controls in future.”

Tony from IBM – “I didn’t expect much from this event,  but this experience was amazing. My key takeaways are how to use Azure backends, and create sample apps that could take weeks for a set of developers to provide a prototype. I am going to present my users how to use the takeaways from today’s event and make it valuable to the customers and my organization. Thank you guys for organizing this.”


Hina Ahuja OF CES – “I learnt a lot of new things like mobile app creation with Azure, and that I don’t have to create apps, but take it and use it efficiently.”

Nayan Jain, student of SRM College – “I loved it.”

Rajalakshmi, IBM – “This is my first Dev Days event.  It was very good. I have worked with Syncfusion controls. 7 to 8 years back I was working on third-party controls for web app. Now I see that as I grow, Syncfusion has introduced new controls for Xamarin. This is a wonderful experience. So far, I have not used native controls and today SF team showed us a demo live app with various features. We would go for a free trial and showcase it to my clients. Good job team.”
