Telerik UI for Xamarin uses the Xamarin.Forms technology, which makes it possible for developers to build native iOS, Android and Windows Phone apps from a single shared C# code base. The Telerik Chart and Calendar for Xamarin enables developers to easily implement various charting functionalities in their Xamarin.Forms projects and achieve the same scenarios across platforms using a single shared C# code base.

UI for Xamarin is built on top of the Telerik native controls for iOS and Android to offer Xamarin users truly native UI for their apps. UI for Xamarin capitalizes on the innate benefits of the native UI but exposes all objects and properties in C#, providing “no-compromise” customization and flexibility. The product ships Xamarin wrappers for UI for iOS, Xamarin wrappers for UI for Android and Xamarin.Forms controls (Chart and Calendar are available currently, more are coming).

Telerik Chart for Xamarin.Forms complements the UI controls set available with Xamarin.Forms. The control enables you to easily add various charting scenarios to your shared C# codebase.

Building on the native controls for Android, iOS and Windows Phone, UI for Xamarin offers fast loading, excellent drawing capabilities and pixel-perfectness – the quality performance only native code can deliver.

Telerik UI for Xamarin follows an aggressive release schedule, with three releases per year. Our roadmap is customer-driven and very transparent.The Telerik team is dedicated at providing a full range of Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms components so developers can create one-of-a-kind app experiences for their customers. Coming next in February 2015 are ListView for Xamarin.iOS and ListView for Xamarin.Android.

Dedicated support is available directly from the developers who build the suite, even during your trial.To help you get off to a fast start with the controls, we’ve created extensive online documentation.
