Xamarin Forms Starter

A reasonably lightweight Xamarin Forms starter project.

This should be a decent place to start when writing Xamarin Forms apps using MVVM.

It's slightly opinionated, but these are the tools I tend to use in many projects - feel free to swap in your own.

There's a PS script included that'll find/replace/rename everything to your chosen solution name.
