Installation

Simply install the NuGet package into your Xamarin.Android application and use as below.

This library now supports AndroidX libraries rather than v7 support libraries so it may ask you to install these dependencies in order to carry on using this control.

Package Manager:

Install-Package Xama.JTPorts.ShowcaseView -Version 1.0.1

.NET CLI:

dotnet add package Xama.JTPorts.ShowcaseView --version 1.0.1

Contribution

More than happy for people to raise issues, or submit pull requests on adjustments, optimisations or improvements to the existing port. It's been migrated over to AndroidX support libraries so there's room to improve the ways the UI animations are created potentially.
