In this chapter, we covered a lot about how to create user interface elements using different layout managers and widgets such as TextView
, ImageView
, ProgressBar
, and ListView
.
We also covered how to consume REST web services using the Xamarin.Android HttpClient
class, deserialize the JSON response using the Json.NET component, and populate the data on the screen.
The next chapter will introduce you to some more view groups and build more complex UIs. We will continue with POIApp
by adding a detailed view and allow the user the option to create or delete a Point Of Interest.
