Few weeks ago I explained how we can create a splash screen for Android. Xamarin.Forms takes few seconds to load at each start so it is important to provide a feedback to the user when they click on our icon. The splash screen answers that by providing a way to show a loading screen. Today we will see how we can setup a simple splashscreen with an image centered and with a text label.

Logs are an important part of development. Extracting and analysing debug output and errors is very important especially when the web server goes live.
In this post I will show how we can setup a Console target, a File target and a Live stream on a static HTML page using NLog. NLog is a log framework which can be configured to output logs on different “target”.
