    XamlCompilation(XamlCompilationOptions.Compile) … Thanks for the tip!
    I was always annoyed running into run time Exceptions due to simple misspellings in xaml.

    Hi, I am new to Xamarin. I am trying to learn from your tutorials posted here. I have downloaded the Xamarin Studio on my Mac and trying to follow your tutorials. Well at 22:11, you are explaining to add the event, I am trying the same way, when I press enter at Clicked="Handle_clicked", it does not load my .cs file. How can I fix this?

    Thanks

    This Tutorial is the best

    I absolutely love this video! I've been programming professionally since 2005, originally working on UI/BOL/DAL web apps for 6 years, but pretty much only at BOL level (Microsoft Dynamics CRM) for the past 4. A lot has changed from a UI perspective in the past decade, and I've been out of practice. A few years ago, I wanted to gain back some knowledge in that area, so I made a small app w/Silverlight to get used to the whole XAML world. Recently, I've been wanting to learn how to program on Android, because there's a specific need for an app that doesn't exist, so I figured I might as well code it. Knowing nothing about Android, I poked around, found that Xamarin was most recommended, and downloaded it. Then, of course, I would need some type of primer, so I set about finding a tutorial, and randomly landed here.

    I've got to say, this is by far the best teaching video I've ever come across, and far better than most of my CS classes in college (which were not taught by youtube back in my day ;)). I already knew most of the concepts here, but I stayed to watch the whole thing, because I feel you have the PERFECT blend of teaching qualities!
    – You start out w/the basics of installation and mention where people might run into issues
    – You begin very verbose and then show how to shorthand some things for cleaner code
    – You occasionally call back to a more fundamental level of how the code operates to give context
    – You even occasionally go into the history of where components came from and why.
    – You show how to take things further after understanding key concepts
    – Finally, you end with an assignment that's not completely useless and/or simply put there to test what you just showed. It also prods the student to go beyond what you immediately taught.

    Again, having already programmed for so long, I was half predicting where you were going to go, but knowing all of what I had to learn, both in the classroom and very much "on the battlefield," I can say without a doubt that any new programmers coming here will be perfectly served by your lessons. On top of it all, you have a very professional, clear, and upbeat voice with a quality recording.

    Wonderful wonderful wonderful job!!

    Excellent stuff! Just bought the whole course on udemy. The quality level is maintained throughout the rest of the course.

    BTW. I really liked the way you showed the other partial classes. It was confusing to me (I'm a java dev) where do all those variables come from. Plus you showed the generated class. That's the way to go:D Thanks again!
