Multi-platform library to share statuses, links, and images on Facebook, Flickr, Twitter and more. From the Makers of MonoDevelop and MonoTouch.

Xamarin.Social posts statuses, links, images, and other media to social networks using a simple, cross-platform API. With Xamarin.Social, you can easily:

  • Share text and images on social networks.
  • Access social network APIs using authenticated requests.
  • Automatically and securely store user credentials using Xamarin.Auth.

Xamarin.Social currently works with a number of social networks, and can be extended to support custom services.

See Xamarin Social page for more details.
