Tech saloniki - Cross platform mobile development using xamarin

This document discusses cross-platform mobile development using Xamarin. It notes that while native mobile apps require separate codebases for each platform, Xamarin allows sharing of C# code across iOS, Android, and Windows apps while providing full native API access and high performance. Xamarin.Forms takes this further by allowing shared UI code and a common backend across platforms. Resources for downloading Xamarin, sample apps, and learning materials are also provided.
