In this short introduction to the Visual Studio integrated development environment (IDE), you'll create a simple Visual Basic application that has a Windows-based user interface (UI).
If you haven't already installed Visual Studio, go to the Visual Studio downloads page to install it for free.

Some of the screenshots in this tutorial use the dark theme. If you aren't using the dark theme but would like to, see the Personalize the Visual Studio IDE and Editor page to learn how.
Create a project
First, you'll create a Visual Basic application project. The project type comes with all the template files you'll need, before you've even added anything.

After you select your Visual Basic project template and name your file, Visual Studio opens a form for you. A form is a Windows user interface. We'll create a 'Hello World' application by adding controls to the form, and then we'll run the app.

Add a label to the form
Now that we've added a button control to create an action, let's add a label control to send text to.

You will use Visual Studio 2019, or Visual Studio for Mac, to create a simple application that demonstrates how to display an image and customize its appearance. The following screenshots show the final application:
Create a image
To complete this tutorial you should have Visual Studio 2019 (latest release), with the Mobile development with .NET workload installed. In addition, you will require a paired Mac to build the tutorial application on iOS. For information about installing the Xamarin platform, see Installing Xamarin. For information about connecting Visual Studio 2019 to a Mac build host, see Pair to Mac for Xamarin.iOS development.
To complete this tutorial you should have Visual Studio for Mac (latest release), with iOS and Android platform support installed. In addition, you will also require Xcode (latest release). For more information about installing the Xamarin platform, see Installing Xamarin.
Customize appearance
Display a local imageMac Visual Studio 7.7.4 Blank Forms App Net Standard Disabled Iphone
Image files can be added to platform projects and referenced from Xamarin.Forms shared code. This method of distributing images is required when images are platform-specific, such as when using different resolutions on different platforms, or slightly different designs.
In this exercise, you will modify the ImageTutorial solution to display a local image, rather than an image downloaded from a URI. The local image is the Xamarin logo, which should be downloaded by clicking the button below.
Important
To use a single image across all platforms, the same filename must be used on every platform, and it should be a valid Android resource name (i.e. only lowercase letters, numerals, the underscore, and the period are allowed).
Congratulations!
