Duplicating Multiple Content Pages

Hello,

I am preparing an app in Xamarin.Forms and would like to know the following:

Would it be possible to duplicate multiple content pages within the same solution?

I have to make many content pages for one section of the app and I will then need to make the same thing a few times over. I am hoping not to have to write the same (maybe 70 content pages?) repeatedly for each section since they are so similar. Any ideas other than manually writing each one?

Thanks in advance :)

Hello,

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

I have to make many content pages for one section of the app and I will then need to make the same thing a few times over.

Do you want to use the same UI to display different data item(with similar structure)?

If yes, you can pass your data as paramaters to the UI(e.g. ContentPage or ContentView).

For how to pass paramater to ContentPage, you can check document Passing Data when Navigating .

For more details about ContentView, you can check: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/user-interface/layouts/contentview .

Hope it can help you.

Best Regards,

Jessie Zhang
