Introduction Most mobile applications require network connection. Unfortunately, analysing calls is not so easy. Ask most developers how to do and we will get such answers: A call is failing, and we do not know why? Let’s debug the application and put a breakpoint before the call. We need the duration how the call. Let’s put a stopwatch around the call and print the result in a console. We need to simulate an error to see how the application is behaving.

I've started to create an application to keep track of the progress of the books I am reading (something like goodreads but with a nicer interface). So for the design, I was looking for ideas in dribble and I found some interesting designs like https://dribbble.com/shots/5632432-Book-App-UI/attachments

IntroductionIn this blog, I will explain how to handle multiple view controllers on a single page in Xamarin iOS. If you're interested in learning this, just read the entire post. Since there is no default functionality for showing multiple view controllers in iOS. Some of the application designs are complicated too. In such circumstances hiding & showing views in single ViewController is really not the smart way.

Dependency Injection (DI) might be one of the more polarising topics in the Xamarin community. In general, you're either on board with it and use it religiously - or - you're wrong ⁽ʲᵘˢᵗ ᵏᶦᵈᵈᶦⁿᵍ⁾. The price for the privilege of a DI container is some overhead - both at startup, when service registrations are made, and during runtime, as dependencies are resolved. In this post, I'll look a little bit at using a library called DryIocZero - a lesser known sibling of the popular DryIoC framework - to help minimise the overhead associated with the use of DI.
