Snack Pack 8: Visualizing XAML with the Xamarin.Forms Previewer

The Discussion

• 

  Hello and thanks for the video. But as far as I know the Xamarin Studio 6.1.1 Version is the last one that includes the XAML Previewer. How could we test we the new xamarin studio version?

  @nikogram:It should be there: https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/xamarin-forms/xaml/xaml-previewer/

   

  You can always check for updates can switch to the beta channel.

  Hi - In the Video it doesn't appear that the Previewer supports the UWP platform. Is that changing soon?

• 

  Does Previewer work in Visual Studio?

   Thanks a lot!  It works in VS2015 and helped with Forms xaml design.

  I think it's too early to promote Form previewer. It just doesn't work in most real projects.

  Especially in VS2017 :).
  Nice to have, but..
  Hopefully developers will  polish it in future release.
