This really needs to be improved.
The sample for BarSeries and others is just code behind...seriously who uses the controls like that???
The samples are slapped together with little love, they are supposed to showcase the product!

Hello Norman,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are absolutely agree that having a good and illustrative applications to demonstrate the capabilities of the components is a must. Having more and with good UX sample applications is in our plans. We will also add more illustrative examples In our sample app showing the features in best way.
As for the current SDK demo app - its purpose is to help developers to use the components quickly and it is focused to shows the API of components. We are also planning to extend it with ability to show XAML and Code-Behind approaches for every component.
Thank you again,
Regards,

Hi Rosi,
Thanks for the feedback,
I know it's extra effort but I would suggest it's needed.Having been using Telerik controls for 7 years I know the documentation hasn't always been that great but you got by with the samples but is this case for new devs learning Xamarin the controls, it's not good, again, code behind if not what Forms is about and you need to start matching Forms features with native more or make it clearer why it's not possible to deliver the missing features for Forms.
