Enjoying learning all new stuffs in Xamarin. The course instructor explains so well through clear and constructive explanation. The course has been structured well combining, lectures, tasks, solution, and best practices. I had no idea about Xamarin Android but with this course, I am building up knowledge slowly and gradually. It is best advised not to ever rush, as you should understand the concepts properly. Focus and be consistent.

well Xamarin itself is totally different language to learn from Scratch, what I was thinking is if I known WinForms app development I could easily learn this one too but it's not. It has its own set of tools, properties, methods also with different syntax non of them common with Windows development. For basic things also we need to write many lines of code (e.g. Display Alert Messaging) . This course doesn't cover any Database related stuffs that is Data Driven Application (Master-Detail Forms, Reporting etc.) used in real world which I really wanted to learn.

The instructor seems very knowledgeable but the overall course is very poor, he will teach you loose things, which you can surely use to build your own app but in this course you're just going to build very tiny little "projects", in which they only serve to show that very specific thing the instructor is teaching. You will get the very basics but don't expect too much, it's an average course.

Very good course but it is not updated and some topics are not explained as for instance internet communication.
