Member ✭✭
Hi there
I am using an app that I really like its list view
now I don't know how this view is even called the closest thing I came across was this: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-forms-samples/tree/master/UserInterface/MonkeyAppPicker
Hope someone can tell me how I can implement those nice list that app has in xaml and xamarin.forms
Thanks

It is too broad for "recreating existing app visual using Xamarin.Forms".
If you want to create a listview with the appearance you posted above it's not too hard to achieve it.
Firstly, prepare a green circle image and align it at the left side of the view cell. Then we could put a label with a transparent background color overlapping on this image. Display the days or ∞ depending on the values retrieving from the view model.
At last, put a regular label beside this circle to display some messages.If you want to implement an expandable list view there're multiple samples:

Figured out that I need RecycleView: https://blog.usejournal.com/multi-level-expandable-recycler-view-e75cf1f4ac4b
does Xamarin.Forms have something like that?
