Drag and drop with Xamarin forms? - xamarin.forms

Is it possible to implement dragging and dropping an element in a Xamarin Forms project? I thought this would be simple but I cant seem to find anything online about it.

Pretty light on samples for it actually. Here's a Xamarin forms list view (not by me) with dnd to get you started.

I already start using mvvmcross and i want to learn how to use a master/detail navigation. I can't find MvxMasterDetailPage described in this solution.
I have spent two days trying to start a master/detail navigation and nothing. I wouold like to do it with Xamarin Forms; i don't want to create any other presenter class but use the MvxFormsDroidMasterDetailPagePresenter for android. I had tried create a MvxFormsDroidMasterDetailPagePresenter in setup and also use MvxMasterDetailViewModel and nothing work.
Can some one please explain me or guide me to others options. Thanks.

Drawer layout (navigation menu) in Xamarin Forms without using Master-Detail page

I'm new to Xamarin and I'm still learning and developing a cross platform app. I've found many tutorials and answers here on creating a Xamarin Forms Navigation menu using Master-Detail page. I've created one too. But I'm looking for alternatives ways to create a navigation menu without using master-detail page.
So, has anyone experimented or know how to create a navigation page without using Master-Detail page.
You could use the SlideOverKit. Its free from Xam Consulting.

Xamarin.Forms view for Wizard

Is there any View on Xamarin.Forms to use like wizard? I must use Xamarin.Forms (not Xamarin.Android). Any suggestions?
I have seen this post but it looks like a bit complicated to me (Xamarin step by step wizard android views)
Update 17.04.2019:
Beginning with Xamarin.Forms 4.0, there is a new CarouselView control! This makes my old answer obsolete.
Old answer (obsolete):
The closest to what you're looking for is a CarouselPage. It holds several pages and you can navigate between them by swiping the screen to the left or the right.
Unfortunately, CarouselPage doesn't contain indicators which show on which page you are right now. You will have to implement this on your own if you need it. Your best choise are Custom Renderers.

Xamarin Forms - How to visually create a form

How in Xamarin Forms, can I visually layout and create a form. Like you do in WPF , WinForms etc.. etc... in VS and everyother IDE. Do I alway have to hand-jam the XAML? Seems so absurd.
thanks in advance and have a great coding day
There is no Visual Designer, that has drag and drop functionality. You must code all views in either XAML or C#. (Preferably XAML).
The options you do have, is to view the XAML you are creating in real time, after you have typed it.
Xamarin Previewer (still in preview, built in to Xamarin)
Xamarin Inspector (if you have Visual Studio Enterprise)
UI Sleuth (Like Xamarin Inspector, more geared towards Xamarin Forms, and free)
Gorilla Player (works by actually running on a real device or simulator, but you don't have to keep compiling your app to see changes).
Give it a few weeks of writing XAML and it gets much easier.

Xamarin Forms HTML editor

I'm looking for a HTML editor to that can be used in a Xamarin Forms Project. I need both an iOS and Android implementation. Another option is to try and shoehorn one of the existing open source projects in to a custom forms control. Anyone have any ideas?
There is the "TEditor": https://github.com/XAM-Consulting/TEditor
Never tried but it does look good (though i dont know if its still in active developement)
