Xamarin.Forms Shell Spec\r\nMake it simple and straightforward for new developers to get a complete app experience that is properly structured, uses the right elements, with very little effort and a clear path to being good by default.\r\n\r\nShell is an opinionated API at points, it does not always default every value to some .Default which may change based on the running platform. Instead it may set a value which is then respected across all platforms regardless what the platform default is.\r\n\r\nNote: Drawing Spec moved to: #2452\r\n\r\n# Visual Treatment\r\nNeeds screenshots...\r\n\r\n# Shell Hierarchy\r\nUnderstanding the Shell hierarchy at first can seem overwhelming at first. It represents a complex hierarchy and provides powerful mechanisms for minimizing the amount of boilerplate xaml required to create rich hierarchies.\r\n\r\nThus when first learning shell it is easiest to learn without the shortcuts first, and then introduce the shortcuts to see how to easily minimize the amount of XAML being written.\r\n\r\nNote that all samples that follow do not use templated ShellContent's, which are discussed elsewhere in the spec. Failure to properly use ShellContents with a ContentTemplate will result in all pages being loaded at startup, which will negatively impact startup performance. These samples are for learning purposes only.\r\n\r\nFortunately using ShellContents with ContentTemplates is usually more concise than not using them.\r\n\r\n## No shortcuts\r\nMany of these samples will look needlessly complex, and in reality they are. In the next section these will get simplified.\r\n\r\n### A simple one page app\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       FlyoutBehavior=\"Disabled\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem>\r\n    <ShellSection>\r\n      <ShellContent>\r\n        <local:HomePage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\n![step1](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/30443/40998552-09aa2c7e-68bd-11e8-9ba3-e92d8ec76344.PNG)\r\n\r\nThe top bar can be hidden entirely by setting `Shell.NavBarVisible=\"false\"` on the MainPage. The Flyout would also look rather sparse in this mode and is thus disabled in this sample.\r\n\r\n### Two page app with bottom tabs\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       FlyoutBehavior=\"Disabled\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem>\r\n\r\n    <ShellSection Title=\"Home\" Icon=\"home.png\">\r\n      <ShellContent>\r\n        <local:HomePage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n\r\n    <ShellSection Title=\"Notifications\" Icon=\"bell.png\">\r\n      <ShellContent>\r\n        <local:NotificationsPage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\n![step2](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/30443/40998559-0e9fb3b6-68bd-11e8-819e-9dcdee3d396e.PNG)\r\n\r\nBy adding a section `ShellSection` to the `ShellItem` another bottom tab appears. Settings the approriate title and icon allows control over the Tab item title and icon.\r\n\r\n### Two page app with top and bottom tabs\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       FlyoutBehavior=\"Disabled\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem>\r\n\r\n    <ShellSection Title=\"Home\" Icon=\"home.png\">\r\n      <ShellContent>\r\n        <local:HomePage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n\r\n    <ShellSection Title=\"Notifications\" Icon=\"bell.png\">\r\n\r\n      <ShellContent Title=\"Recent\">\r\n        <local:NotificationsPage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n\r\n      <ShellContent Title=\"Alert Settings\">\r\n        <local:SettingsPage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\n![step3](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/30443/40998570-140b5382-68bd-11e8-968d-f7c6b87d50bf.PNG)\r\n\r\nBy adding a second `ShellContent` to the `ShellSection` a top tab bar is added and the pages can be flipped between when the bottom tab is selected.\r\n\r\n### Two page app using flyout navigation\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <Shell.FlyoutHeader>\r\n    <local:FlyoutHeader />\r\n  </Shell.FlyoutHeader>\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"Home\" Icon=\"home.png\">\r\n    <ShellSection>\r\n      <ShellContent>\r\n        <local:HomePage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"Notifications\" Icon=\"bell.png\">\r\n    <ShellSection>\r\n      <ShellContent>\r\n        <local:NotificationsPage />\r\n      </ShellContent>\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\n![step4](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/30443/40998574-17ca458c-68bd-11e8-8d45-639933e0dfd7.PNG)\r\n\r\nThe flyout is re-enabled in this sample. Here the user can switch between the two pages using the flyout as an intermediary. A header has also been added to look nice.\r\n\r\n## Using shorthand syntax\r\n\r\nNow that all levels of the hierarchy have been shown and breifly explained, it is possible to leave most of the unneeded wrapping out when defining a hierarchy. `Shell` only ever contains `ShellItem`s which only ever contain `ShellSection`s which in turn only ever contain `ShellContent`s. However there are implicit conversion operators in place to allow for automatic up-wrapping.\r\n\r\n### A simple one page app\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       FlyoutBehavior=\"Disabled\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <local:HomePage />\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\nWith implicit wrapping the Page is automatically wrapped all the way up to a `ShellItem`. It is not needed to write out all the intermiedate layers. The `Title` and `Icon` from the `Page` will be bound up to any implicitly generated parents.\r\n\r\n### Two page app with bottom tabs\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       FlyoutBehavior=\"Disabled\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem>\r\n    <local:HomePage Icon=\"home.png\" />\r\n    <local:NotificationsPage Icon=\"bell.png\" />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\nThe pages are now implicitly wrapped up into ShellContent and their own ShellSections. This results in two different tabs being created, just like before.\r\n\r\n### Two page app with top and bottom tabs\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       FlyoutBehavior=\"Disabled\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem>\r\n    <local:HomePage Icon=\"home.png\" />\r\n\r\n    <ShellSection Title=\"Notifications\" Icon=\"bell.png\">\r\n        <local:NotificationsPage />\r\n        <local:SettingsPage />\r\n    </ShellSection>\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\n### Two page app using flyout navigation\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n       xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n       xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n       x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <Shell.FlyoutHeader>\r\n    <local:FlyoutHeader />\r\n  </Shell.FlyoutHeader>\r\n\r\n  <local:HomePage Icon=\"home.png\" />\r\n  <local:NotificationsPage Icon=\"bell.png\" />\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n\r\nHere the implicit wrapping goes all the way up to shell item so there is no need for us to do any wrapping ourselves.\r\n\r\n# Navigation Model\r\n## Push Navigation\r\n\r\nAll navigation is based on the View’s .Navigation property. Pushes go into the current ShellSection that is displayed. This means in a push event the top tabs will go away and the bottom tabs will remain.\r\n\r\n## URI Navigation\r\nThe Shell can be navigated using the standard Navigation property as discussed above, however shell introduces a far more convenient navigation mechanism.\r\n\r\nNavigation URI's are formatted as follows:\r\n\r\n```\r\n[Shell.RouteScheme]://[Shell.RouteHost]/[Shell]/[ShellItem]/[ShellSection]/[ShellContent]/[NavStack1]/[NavStack2]...\r\n```\r\n\r\nAll items in the shell hierarchy have a route associated with them. If the route is not set by the developer, the route is generated at runtime. Runtime generated routes are not gauranteed to be stable across different runs of the app and thus are not useful for deep linking.\r\n\r\n# Handling the Back Button\r\n\r\nSince Shell will be in the enviable position of not having to use native controls, all forms of back button overriding can and should be supported.\r\n\r\nProper handling of the back button needs to support the following features:\r\n\r\n\r\n- Intercepting interactions and stopping them\r\n- Replacing the back button with something else\r\n- Hiding the back button entirely when desired\r\n- Work for software and hardware buttons\r\n\r\nThe API needs to be granular to the page level for ease of use, but also be able to be handled further up the stack in a more general level.\r\n\r\n# Code Samples and API\r\n## Samples\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell>\r\n  <Shell.FlyoutHeaderTemplate>\r\n    <DataTemplate>\r\n      <Grid>\r\n        <Label Text=\"{x:Bind HeaderText}\" />\r\n      </Grid>\r\n    </DataTemplate>\r\n  </Shell.FlyoutHeaderTemplate>\r\n  \r\n  // Flyout Item 1\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"My music\" ItemsSource=\"{x:Bind MyMusicModels}\" TabLocation=\"Bottom\">\r\n    <ShellItem.ItemTemplate>\r\n      <local:MyMusicItemTemplateSelection />\r\n    </ShellItem.ItemTemplate>\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n  \r\n  // Flyout Item 2\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"Home\" Icon=\"home.png\" GroupBehavior=\"ShowTabs\">\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"My Friends\">\r\n      <local:FriendsPage />\r\n    </ShellContent>\r\n    <local:FeedPage />\r\n    <local:ProfilePage />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n  \r\n  // Flyout Item 3\r\n  <local:SettingsPage />\r\n  \r\n  // Flyout Item 4\r\n  <MenuItem Text=\"Log Out\" Command=\"{x:Bind LogOutCommand}\" />\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n### Single Page App using Shell\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell FlyoutVisibility=\"Disabled\">\r\n  <local:MyPage />\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n### Single Group of Tabs app (no Flyout)\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell FlyoutVisibility=\"Disabled\">\r\n  <ShellItem>\r\n    <local:MyPage />\r\n    <local:MySecondPage />\r\n    <local:MyThirdPage />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n### Multiple pages in flyout with no tabs\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell FlyoutVisibility=\"Disabled\">\r\n  <local:MyPage />\r\n  <local:MySecondPage />\r\n  <local:MyThirdPage />\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n### Single Page Searchable App\r\n```xaml\r\n<Shell FlyoutVisibility=\"Disabled\">\r\n  <local:MyPage />\r\n</Shell>\r\n```\r\n```csharp\r\npublic class MyPage : ContentPage\r\n{\r\n  public class MyPageSearchHandler : SearchHandler\r\n  {\r\n    public MyPageHandler ()\r\n    {\r\n      SearchBoxVisibility = SearchBoxVisibility.Collapsed;\r\n      IsSearchEnabled = true;\r\n      Placeholder = \"Search me!\";\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    protected override async void OnSearchConfirmed (string query)\r\n    {\r\n      IsSearching = true;\r\n    \r\n      await PerformSearch (query);\r\n      UpdateResults ();\r\n      \r\n      IsSearching = false;\r\n    }\r\n    \r\n    protected override void OnSearchChanged (string oldValue, string newValue)\r\n    {\r\n      // Do nothing, we will wait for confirmation\r\n    }\r\n  }\r\n\r\n  public MyPage ()\r\n  {\r\n    Shell.SetSearchHandler (this, new MyPageSearchHandler ());\r\n  }\r\n}\r\n```\r\n## API Definition\r\n\r\n### Shell\r\nThis is the base class for Shell's. It defines a somewhat strict navigational model however all shells must adhere to it in general. It does not include any theming or design language specific features.\r\n\r\n```csharp\r\n[ContentProperty(\"Items\")]\r\npublic class Shell : Page, IShellController\r\n{\r\n  // Attached

This is useful for instances where the template would otherwise be specified as\r\n```xaml\r\n<ListView>\r\n  <ListView.ItemTemplate>\r\n    <DataTemplate>\r\n      <local:MyCell />\r\n    </DataTemplate>\r\n  </ListView.ItemTemplate>\r\n</ListView>\r\n```\r\n\r\nThis can then be condensed down to\r\n```xaml\r\n<ListView ItemTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:MyCell}\" />\r\n```\r\n\r\n```csharp\r\npublic sealed class ControlTemplateExtension : IBindingExtension<ControlTemplate>\r\n```\r\n\r\n```csharp\r\npublic sealed class DataTemplateExtension : IBindingExtension<DataTemplate>\r\n```\r\n## Odds and Ends\r\n\r\n### What happens when you select a tab in Flyout which has been pushed to?\r\nThis is the equivalent of focusing the tab and calling PopToRoot on it.\r\n\r\n### What happens when I switch ShellItems and there are items on the backstack of a ShellContent of the old ShellItem\r\nIf the old ShellItem is templated, the back stack is lost. If the ShellItem is not templated the BackStack stays intact and when switching back to the old ShellItem the backstack will be properly reflected. Switching back may clear the backstack however as indicated in the above answer.\r\n\r\n# Effecient loading of pages\r\nA major problem with using the Shell is the ease by which a user can end up loading all pages at the start of their application run. This large frontloaded allocation can result in quite poor startup performance if a large number of content pages are needed. In order to fix this templating should be employed when possible.\r\n\r\n## Templated ShellContents\r\nTemplating shell tab items is the most granular form of templating available, it is fortunately also the easiest to do. Take the following shell.\r\n\r\n```xaml\r\n<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?>\r\n<MaterialShell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n               xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n               xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n               x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"My apps &amp; games\">\r\n    <local:UpdatesPage />\r\n    <local:InstalledPage />\r\n    <local:LibraryPage />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem GroupBehavior=\"ShowTabs\">\r\n    <local:HomePage />\r\n    <local:GamesPage />\r\n    <local:MoviesTVPage />\r\n    <local:BooksPage />\r\n    <local:MusicPage />\r\n    <local:NewsstandPage />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</MaterialShell>\r\n```\r\n\r\nWhen this Shell loads, all 9 pages will be inflated at once. This is because no templating is employed. To employ basic templating we can convert this into:\r\n\r\n```xaml\r\n<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?>\r\n<MaterialShell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n               xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n               xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n               x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\">\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"My apps &amp; games\">\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Updates\"        Icon=\"updates.png\" ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:UpdatesPage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Installed Apps\" Icon=\"apps.png\"    ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:InstalledPage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Library\"        Icon=\"library.png\" ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:LibraryPage}\" />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem GroupBehavior=\"ShowTabs\">\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Home\"          Icon=\"updates.png\"   ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:HomePage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Games\"         Icon=\"games.png\"     ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:GamesPage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Movies and TV\" Icon=\"moviesTV.png\"  ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:MoviesTVPage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Books\"         Icon=\"books.png\"     ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:BooksPage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Music\"         Icon=\"music.png\"     ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:MusicPage}\" />\r\n    <ShellContent Title=\"Newsstand\"     Icon=\"newsstand.png\" ContentTemplate=\"{DataTemplate local:NewsstandPage}\" />\r\n  </ShellItem>\r\n</MaterialShell>\r\n```\r\n\r\nPages are now only loaded as needed and can be unloaded as needed as well. If needed the ShellItem's themselves can also be templated with a collection and a DataTemplateSelector which prevents even the ShellContents from having to be loaded eagerly, however this is largely unneeded and templating ShellItem is more useful for Shells that have ShellItems with large numbers of otherwise similar tabs. Templating the ShellContent should be the key area to provide templating for performance concerns.\r\n\r\n# Reconstructing the Google Play Store User Interface\r\nPlease note this is not intended to be a demo of the best way to code an application, but really the most concise format to shove together the UI for GPS. It also makes no attempt to virtualize the relevant pages by using ViewModels and DataTemplateSelector's. This means this would be quite bad performing as all pages would be loaded at app start. Reader is warned.\r\n\r\nAll page content is assumed to be working right, this is only to get the general idea of the chrome.\r\n## Shell.xaml\r\nA proper implementation of this would use ShellItems for every page and set the ItemsSource and ItemTemplate. This would allow each page to only be loaded once it is needed and unloaded when no longer needed.\r\n```xaml\r\n<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?>\r\n<MaterialShell xmlns=\"http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms\"\r\n               xmlns:x=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml\"\r\n               xmlns:local=\"clr-namespace:MyStore\"\r\n               x:Class=\"MyStore.Shell\"\r\n               FlyoutHeaderBehavior=\"Fixed\"\r\n               FlyoutHeader=\"{x:Bind HeaderViewModel}\">\r\n  <MaterialShell.FlyoutHeaderTemplate>\r\n    <local:CircleImageAndLabelControl HeightRequest=\"350\" />\r\n  </MaterialShell.FlyoutHeaderTempalte>\r\n\r\n  <ShellItem Title=\"My apps &amp;
