Summary
In this chapter, we leveraged two key concepts in the Xamarin.Forms API to help improve the look and feel and user experience of our TripLog app. With the use of a Custom Renderer, we are able to tap directly into the platform-specific APIs to change the default behavior of Xamarin.Forms controls; and with the use of Value Converters, we are able to alter the appearance of data when it is bound to the user interface. In the next chapter, we are going to connect the TripLog app to an API to get live data.
