What is the direction of using a Carousel in Xamarin Forms?
Member ✭✭
My current findings are CarouselPage does not support ToolbarItems and is deprecated, CarouselView is stuck in pre-release. Are the plans to change either one? I am not asking for a timeline just a general direction of things.

There's a few decent OSS libraries out there and 3rd party control providers with solutions

Would be useful to get some official wisdom
That sounds like a juicy story... Please elaborate.
I may be way way wrong here (not uncommon), I think there were elements that fell outside the MIT licencing model.
Hey
CarouselPage is obsolete approach
Try this one https://github.com/AndreiMisiukevich/CardView
