iOS13 includes a large number of exciting new features, some of which I outlined in a previous post. One addition in the release that has received less attention is the new option for UITableView and UICollectionView data source configuration - the 'diffable data source'. The aim of diffable data sources is to greatly simplify the interactions between a dataset and UITableView/UICollectionView when changes occur, by allowing UIKit itself to manage the diffing, reload and animation of sections and cells.

The question implies an either/or arrangement, and the reality is that the majority of Xamarin projects do end up being either 'all Native' or 'all Forms'. In the recently released special .NET Core 3 Focus edition of CODE Magazine, I wrote about a situation in which a project moved from a Xamarin Native architecture to being a hybrid of both Xamarin.
