Use it quite often and enjoy it. Biggest reason is because I love C#/.net. Only recently been using Xamarin.Forms, which seems to finally be getting to a pretty mature state. They’ve made it a lot easier to jump in/out of Xamarin.Forms and Xamarin native within the same app. Also recently added Hot-reload features to compete with flutter. However, Flutter feels like it’s ultimately going to take over this space for “native” cross platform development. More momentum and less baggage. I have noticed Xamarin seems to be better about incorporating community feedback since flutter became its primary competition. Flex layout, Shell/route based navigation, etc. seem like responses to flutter features. Xamarin is great for C# fans but probably won’t win over many others outside of that with flutter as the alternative.
