Let’s replicate a Banking Profile UI in Xamarin Forms

Howdy!!! ?‍♀ In this  #LoveMonth, let’s continue with the second post of the UI series for February! In this case we are going to replicate a Banking Profile UI obtained from Dribble. You can check it here!

⚠ Before starting, to get the best out of the post, I’ll leave you some instructional notes so that you have a better experience reproducing the UI:

➖ At the beginning, you will see an image with the original UI where you will see divided into blocks as we’ll be working each part of the design.
.
➖ Each block presents the image with the design explicitly that we’ll be working on that block, they are highlighted in a box.
.
➖ In each of the code blocks you can see a comment that says: “Here add the code that is being explained in the next block“. To keep you as focused as possible, this part indicates you that the next block code explanation goes right where the comment line is added.

Let’s start!

Let’s divide the original design into blocks

To better understand, I have divided the original design into blocks, which are listed in the order in which we will be reproducing each one, these are:

.
Let’s start! ? The first block is named “Profile picture” and to replicate we need to add the following things:
.
➖Profile picture (Obtained from here)
➖Name profile owner
➖ID profile owner
.
As is the first block of our page, we need to set the full layout structure that will be contains our design, in this case I use a ScrollView and a StackLayout.
.

To replicate the “Contact information frame” block, we just need to add a frame to achieve the oval shapes above.

To add all this contact information we will be working with a Grid which will be contained in Two columns and six rows. Let’s start adding “Your balance” block.

For “Cards” block we will be using a CollectionView. it’s important that the project adheres to the the MVVM Design pattern. That’s why I used text properties Binded.

And finally I also used a CollectionView to replicate the history list.

In the main image of this post, I added some screenshot of the IOS version,  now I’ll leave those of the Android one.

And our Banking Profile design is done! ?

  1. I think that it would be great if banking sector started to use more Xamarin Forms.
    The apps would be good looking and fast.

  2. Great article Leomaris, Thank you! I would love you write an article about reading a pdf inside a Xamarin mobile app. For example, let’s consider that I have a listview of books (pdf) and I would like when people click on any book they could stay inside the app and read the book through.
