This sample app was made to demonstrate how to port a Desktop App to a Mobile App. This project had an existing Desktop application. They provided us a mock up of their mobile app (see below) which did not follow iOS UI best-practices. We created a sample app to demonstrate how to adhere to mobile UI while still maintaining a workflow familiar to their desktop app.
This app utilizes a SQLite databse, MVVM, along with these Xamarin.Forms controls: Carousel Page, Search Bar, Picker, Grid, StackLayout, Navigation Page, ListView, ViewCell. It also shows how to tweak the UI to best appear on larger tablet screens. It also includes a Shake Listener, and will display a pop-up whenever the user shakes the device.
The customer provided us this wireframe as the initial design for their mobile application. Their goal was to replicate their existing desktop app .
This is the sample app we provided as it appears on a phone
