When you compare a blank Xamarin.Android app with a blank Xamarin.Forms app, you’ll notice the Xamarin.Android app loads quicker.
When you say Startup…įirst, let’s define startup as everything that happens from the time the user hits your app icon to when the first usable screen appears ready for business. As you work to tune the speed and responsiveness of your Xamarin.Forms application, keep in mind that the same principles that improve the experience of your apps built with the Xamarin SDKs for iOS and Android will also improve those going cross-platform with Xamarin.Forms-and that experience begins at startup.
The Xamarin SDKs for iOS and Android provide an extremely performant foundation upon which to build Xamarin.Forms cross-platform applications.
