Consuming Platform-Specifics

Platform-specifics allow you to consume functionality that's only available on a specific platform, without implementing custom renderers or effects.

Vendors can create their own platform-specifics with Effects. An Effect provides the specific functionality, which is then exposed through a platform-specific. The result is an Effect that can be more easily consumed through XAML, and through a fluent code API.

Xamarin Workbook

If it's not already installed, install the Xamarin Workbooks app first. The workbook file should download automatically, but if it doesn't, just click to start the workbook download manually.
