How can I create a Xamarin.Forms cards carousel?

Question

How can I get this carousel of cards in Xamarin Forms?
I did it in ASP.Net-MVC C# and I'm using a JS plugin and HTML and CSS.
Now I need to do it using Xamarin Forms C# and XAML?

These are my namespaces:

xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms/design"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"

Answer 1

Install CarouselView.FormsPlugin into your NuGEt solution.

Add CarouselViewRenderer.Init(); in your MainActivity.s and AppDelegate.cs before LoadApplication(new App());

In your xaml where you want to use carousalview,

            <controls:CarouselViewControl   IndicatorsTintColor="LightBlue"  x:Name="TilesSlider" IsVisible="False"  ArrowsTintColor="White"   CurrentPageIndicatorTintColor="White"  ItemsSource="{Binding }" ShowIndicators="True" AnimateTransition="True" ShowArrows="True"  Orientation="Horizontal"  InterPageSpacing="10"   VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" >
                <controls:CarouselViewControl.ItemTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate>

                        <Frame HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" HasShadow="False" CornerRadius="7" BackgroundColor="White" BorderColor="Snow" Margin="10,2,10,7">

                         <-----You can add your control her---->

                        </Frame>
                    </DataTemplate>
                </controls:CarouselViewControl.ItemTemplate>
            </controls:CarouselViewControl>

Inside the frame add your controls accordingly.

You can also use CardsView by nuget installing.

                        <Frame
                            Padding="0"
                            CornerRadius="10"
                            HasShadow="false"
                            HeightRequest="300"
                            HorizontalOptions="Center"
                            IsClippedToBounds="true"
                            VerticalOptions="Center"
                            WidthRequest="300">

                            <ffimage:CachedImage Source="{Binding imagesource}" />

                        </Frame>
                    </ContentView>
                </DataTemplate>
            </cards:CarouselView.ItemTemplate>

            <controls:IndicatorsControl ToFadeDuration="1500" />

            <!--<controls:LeftArrowControl ToFadeDuration="2500" />

            <controls:RightArrowControl ToFadeDuration="2500" />-->
        </cards:CarouselView>
    </StackLayout>
</ContentPage.Content>

public partial class Page14 : ContentPage
{
    public ObservableCollection<model> Items { get; set; }
    public Page14 ()
    {
        InitializeComponent ();
        Items = new ObservableCollection<model>()
        {
            new model(){imagesource="a11.jpg"},
            new model(){imagesource="a12.jpg"},
            new model(){imagesource="a13.jpg"},
            new model(){imagesource="a14.jpg"},
            new model(){imagesource="a15.jpg"},
            new model(){imagesource="a9.jpg"}
        };
        this.BindingContext = this;
    }
}

public class model
{
    public string imagesource { get; set; }

}

Add the following code in Android Mainactivity and IOS AppDelegate, after Forms.Init()

CardsViewRenderer.Preserve() for iOS AppDelegate in FinishedLaunching

CardsViewRenderer.Preserve() for Android MainActivity in OnCreate
