## What it is
A collection of free, elegantly designed XAML template pages for Xamarin.Forms apps, following the MVVM pattern. It includes a Visual Studio extension for quickly adding templates and covers common screens like dashboards, login, and profile pages.

## Use cases
- build a xamarin forms app with pre-designed screens
- find xaml templates for login and profile pages
- create an admin dashboard in xamarin forms
- speed up mobile ui development with mvvm templates
- add rtl-ready ui pages to a cross-platform app

## When to choose
- you are building a Xamarin.Forms app targeting Android, iOS, or UWP
- you want ready-made MVVM-compatible XAML layouts
- you need polished common screens without designing from scratch

## When to avoid
- you are using .NET MAUI or another framework instead of Xamarin.Forms
- you need fully custom, non-template UI designs
- your project does not follow the MVVM pattern
