I am trying to use Xamarin workbench and I am not sure how to get started using it. I try to paste the code that I just create from Visual Studio. It was not working. I feel it's like a tool which can help me paste and run my code.
or this is used for something else. Is this same like C# interactive window but with Gui like jupyter in python or something else. This thing sound interesting.
Please tell me how to get started with it. I use docs.micrsoft.com but didn't found anything there.

Is it possible to test ios code in Xamarin workbook on windows. I means showing listview's result on the time I write the code. I see a demo in which image was placed (conceptdev android preview) and I was thinking it's a image for what it render.
Yes, you can create an iOS workbook on Windows.
You will need to configure a connection to your Mac build host in Visual Studio first (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/ios/get-started/installation/windows/connecting-to-mac/), and make sure you have the Remoted iOS Simulator (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/tools/ios-simulator) installed.
Here is one of several example workbooks showing building UI directly in a workbook: https://github.com/xamarin/Workbooks/tree/master/ios/user-interface/UITableView/uitableview.workbook
