I'm pretty new to Xamarin Forms and C# in general, and need som hints on the best way to create an app for iOS and Android. I want to use the Camera to take pictures / videos and later on send them with email or something else, since I want customized controls on the camera, I'm guessing the stock camera won't be an option? Which gets us to Renderers, which is the best approach to this? Preferably in a MVVM way. I just want the camera and a few customized buttons on it.

Do I make on renderer for the different buttons objects and one for the camera, the buttons I'll do as extensions of the Button class, but what about the camera?

You have two options:

  1. Create a page renderer and put your camera/buttons native in each platform.
  2. Create a view renderer for the camera and add your view in any page of Forms, so you can put your buttons or anything you like in forms.
  • would you care to elaborate that a bit more, I would like to go on the second choice with view renderer, but am still not totally sure how to do this properly. /Oliver – Oliver Jun 26 '17 at 10:26
