Xamarin Platform
Xamarin is a cross-platform development environment that allows developers to build native iOS, Android, and Windows apps using C#. It provides tools for building apps using a shared codebase, including integration with Visual Studio, Xamarin Studio, and support for platforms through components. Some key capabilities include building fully native UIs, using platform-specific APIs, and leveraging tools like the component store, NuGet packages, and designers to improve productivity. It also offers monitoring tools like Xamarin Insights to help debug apps.

Editor's Notes
- #3 New generation grow up in the environment with mobile device everywhere. 這些電腦對他們來說是環境的一部分 行動裝置將是獲得資訊的入口點
- #4 這是注意力經濟的時代 你開Google搜尋時會看幾頁的搜尋結果 上次開啟手機上的瀏覽器時，會停留在一個網站多久？ 你會為了什麼樣的需求，將網站圖標置放在手機桌面？
- #5 There’re different ways to develop mobile service. 既然要建立行動平台上的入口，那有什麼技術可以選 1. 原生開發平台 2. 次級開發平台
- #6 Which conditions you need to think about the platform choice. 在選擇開發平台時，需要考量需多因素 這幾項都是需要考慮的因素 什麼樣的內容：影音平台與博物館導覽或是行動購物，會產生不同的內容規劃需求 會講究反應速度嗎？ 有用到裝置上的特殊功能嗎？如加速器與陀螺儀，手勢，指南針與磁力計，Video與Audio，定位與GeoFence 有用到多少動畫效果？ 找得到開發人員或能讓手上目前的人力轉用嗎？ 能保住既有的投資，能讓投資在未來不會白費嗎？
- #7 先來介紹二次開發平台 (澄清一下，不是二流開發平台) 基本上分成二類 一是將web page 放在app內，以內建的瀏覽器元件載入。再規劃一些裝置 API 供頁面內的 javascript 呼叫使用 二是將使用的 javascript 轉換成原生程式碼，將html 加上 css的頁面佈局，轉換成xml格式的UI notation
- #8 假設你選擇了以瀏覽器元件做為執行方式的二次開發平台 可以使用與網頁設計相同的 javascript 與 css 看起來好像十分容易入門及與既有資源結合 但是當你實際使用時，會發現你需要一個強悍的工程師團隊，解決各類RWD問題 諸如過場效果，地圖等與裝置平台呼叫等等
- #9 我想各位應該應該認識這位 他放棄了這種開發方式 當然還是有許多討論發生 或許我們可以組一支比 Facebook 所擁有，技術更為強大的前端團隊 不過超越Facebook是各位的商業目標嗎？ 還是我們應該讓技術支援我們的商業目標？
- #10 不要忘記 debug 及 profile 佔了開發時程的百分比 這視各團隊的狀況有所不同
- #11 另外不要忘記與平台有關的功能 都需要這個二次平台的開發團隊實踐 第一個超連結是Cordova 團隊，以Java 撰寫 lib ，目的在編成 lib 供 第二個連結的 cordova.js 載入 第三個超連結是Cordova 團隊，以Objective-C 撰寫 lib ，目的在編成 lib 供 第四個連結的 cordova.js 載入 這些contributor 都是強人啊
- #12 當然 Facebook 並沒有忘記 HTML, CSS 以及 javascript 不過這次慎重多了 看看那個版次號，等正式上線應該還有一段時間 另外別忘了 debug 問題
- #14 那假設各位不選擇二次開發平台 選擇進入原生的開發平台 諸如 Objective-C 與 Java
- #15 原生平台會提供各位最完整的支援 社群與各類資源都是圍繞原生平台運作 這些都是選擇原生平台的好處 但是有幾個問題需要思考
- #16 都是類似的處理方法 需要一步步解析以取得 Dictionary 及 Array 型態的資料
- #17 http://www.newtonsoft.com/json 直接解析為物件 當然可以引用很多Library 來達成一樣的目的 可是手續不會這樣簡單
- #18 按下 Component Store 就完成新增
- #19 完全一致的 UI notation
- #20 完全一致的 UI notation
- #21 Anything you can do in Objective-C, Swift, or Java can be done in C# with Xamarin.
- #22 更新頻率
- #26 In October 2014, Xamarin and IBM MobileFirst announced a strategic partnership, which include the IBM MobileFirst SDK for Xamarin (available in the Component Store). This makes it easy for developers to integrate, secure and manage Xamarin apps using IBM MobileFirst, directly from within Visual Studio and Xamarin Studio. Every successful mobile app needs a consumer-grade front-end and an enterprise-grade backend, and this partnership provides an end-to-end solution for our joint customers.
- #27 In May 2015, Xamarin announced interoperability with IBM MobileFirst Protect, IBM’s EMM (enterprise mobility management) solution. With this collaboration, we expand our partnership, offering our joint customers even more comprehensive solutions to safeguard company information and enable employee productivity. Companies build native, high quality apps with Xamarin, simply upload their IPA and APK packages to the MobileFirst portal for containerization and configuration, and can then safely distribute and manage user access from MobileFirst’s portal. The interoperability includes: data loss prevention, such as restricting device clipboard operations (copy/paste/print) and open-in functionality for apps that aren’t whitelisted; jailbreak detection, shutting down user access once jailbreak is detected; requiring users to enter PIN codes.
- #37 As you know, Xamarin has a strong integration with Visual Studio - including Portable Class Libraries and Shared Projects, allowing developers to use the IDE and language they know to build native iOS, Android and Windows apps. This is Visual Studio 2013 with an iPad debugging right in front of it. What is really interesting is that you don't have to context-switch whenever you move between different platforms. You can move from Windows to iPad and it literally requires one click. On top of that, if your team is using TFS or if your team is familiar with some of the profiling and code-coverage tools inside of Visual Studio, you don’t have to relearn these things. In addition, the first-run experience for you as a developer is that you install Xamarin, you re-open Visual Studio, and suddenly you can do “File - New Project” right inside of Visual Studio and start writing an iPad app without having to re-learn new tools, or new APIs that are unfamiliar to you as a .NET Developer. You can be productive in the first minute because you are staying inside of your preferred environment, yet able to target multiple mobile platforms.
- #38 Now, developers can easily access Xamarin iOS and Android templates to start building apps immediately - they simply select a template and are prompted to download Xamarin. From there, they can start building beautiful, cross-platform native apps - straight from Visual Studio.
- #39 Studio (only cover with non-Visual Studio users, skip entirely for a MSFT-driven lead) As an alternative to Visual Studio, we have Xamarin Studio, which is our own IDE built from the ground up for mobile development. Xamarin Studio has all of the modern development features of a world-class IDE such as code introspection, code completion, and interactive debugging. All of this is packaged in a user interface that is optimized for mobile. Xcode integration means that you can access and edit storyboard and xib files just by double-clicking them. Xcode will automatically open and you can edit those files using drag and drop functionality in Interface Builder. We also have integration with Instruments so you can profile your iOS and Mac apps. Whether you are using Xamarin Studio or Visual Studio, we’re really excited to give you designer technologies that work in both environments to build world-class UIs. We’ll talk about those designers in more
- #40 An important aspect that I want everyone to know about is the Xamarin Component Store. We have built an amazing ecosystem of pre-built components that you can include into your applications to accelerate the speed of mobile app development with Xamarin. Take the Signature Pad for example. A lot of enterprise applications require somebody, somewhere in the business to sign for something. The Signature Pad is literally three lines of code and you have a signature capture feature in your app. All of our pre-built components are highly curated. On average, it’s really funny, on average we actually reject a component four times, based on design, lack of functionality or documentation. So by the time a component actually ends up in the Xamarin Component Store you know that it really works. It works really well, and it does what it is supposed to do. We have over 150 components including a) cross-platform UI controls and themes, b)libraries for adding bar code scanning, charting or signatures to your apps, for example; c)cloud services that make it easy for you to connect to the most popular backend systems such as Dropbox, Azure Mobile Services, and Salesforce; and d)enterprise components that provide functionality such as password protection, SAP integration, and on-device encryption. The component store is built right into Visual Studio and Xamarin Studio, which makes it easy to find, use and manage components.
- #41 .NET developers have built a rich ecosystem of over 22,000 reusable components packaged as NuGets. Companies are also building their own repositories of custom NuGet packages. With NuGet support in both Xamarin Studio and Visual Studio, you can now consume and distribute mobile components in exactly the same way as you’re used to for your desktop and web apps. NuGet support combined with the Xamarin Component Store provide Xamarin developers with comprehensive access to 3rd party libraries that can be added to apps with just a few lines of code. NuGet support also makes it easier to collaborate with other Visual Studio and Xamarin Studio users.
- #42 A lot of developers like to have the option to do storyboard development in Interface Builder, but do not like it that it is their only option. And for most C# developers, Xcode conventions such as “selectors” and “outlets” are foreign to them. The Xamarin Designer for OS provides another choice for building app UI. You won’t need to go back and forth between Xamarin Studio and Xcode to build and modify iOS UI. And the Xamarin Designer for iOS has capabilities that you can’t even do in Xcode. For example, it can virtualize custom components and controls. Unlike storyboard editing in Interface Builder where adding a custom control will render a generic blue square, the Xamarin Designer for iOS will actually render the custom control and show you what you will actually see at runtime. In addition, you can do live previews of modifications to properties, making it even faster to build a great iPhone or iPad app. The Xamarin Designer for iOS is integrated into both Xamarin Studio and Visual Studio.
- #43 We also have the Xamarin Designer for Android, which provides a great design experience. With our Android designer, you can drag and drop changes in your controls, change properties and layouts, and style things, with your changes reflected in your source code. You can modify settings such as the orientation of your device, the size, and choose different Android operating system versions all from within the designer. With the Android designer, you quickly build your UI and see what it is going to look like with each individual device. That’s really great and something a lot of our developers love, and we offer this in both in Xamarin and Visual Studio. Additionally, if you already have any layouts that you’ve created for Java Android apps, or simply find a layout sample on the internet, you can simply copy/paste them into your Xamarin app. This is because we use the exact same XML markup and rendering engine that Android uses for Java apps.
- #45 Xamarin Insights is a real time app monitoring service where you are able to quickly identify and resolve issues that are impacting your users. Integrated into Xamarin apps with a simple API, you gain visibility into uncaught or managed exceptions. Diagnose user issues by including additional data in your code which can be amended to the reported exception data. As a developer you can utilize event tracking to see user interactions with page views, button clicks, and other event data in the UI.
- #46 In order to address another pain point for developers, Xamarin Insights offers you the ability to not only see which users are currently using your application, but which events are occurring during their sessions, what device they are using, and their location. You can address the concerns of an individual user with a bad review by getting the full details of their user sessions and events, and communicate updates to all affected users. Competitors Ours is more focused on crash and errors. Insights.xamarin.com/docs
