## What it is
A collection of animations, behaviors, converters, and effects for Xamarin.Forms mobile development, simplifying common developer tasks when building iOS, Android, and UWP apps. Support ended on May 1, 2024, and its successor is the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit.

## When to choose
- maintaining an existing xamarin.forms application
- you cannot yet migrate to .NET MAUI and need these components

## When to avoid
- starting a new mobile project - use .NET MAUI Community Toolkit instead
- you need actively maintained or supported software
- you are migrating to .NET MAUI

## Facets
