Custom Controls for Xamarin Forms

Hi everybody, I finally find the time to bring some documentation to my awesome collection of XF controls. They are all pure XF controls with no platform-specific code at all. Since I'm very lazy, I will use this single file for all controls. Pardon my englysh and my foolishness, I'm italian.

Controls

Name	Useless Description
StateButton	A button with On/Off state	Link
BadgeButton	A button that's nothing but a lot of talk and a badge	Link
AccordionView	Classic accordion-style control	Link
RepeaterView	RepeaterView	Link
WrapRepeaterView	Same as RepeaterView, but it spans multiple columns	Link
ProgressBarView	You don't like native progressbar, don't you? Neither do I!	Link
AutoCompleteView (discontinued)	Use at your own risk	Link

Platform Support

UWP and other platforms are not supported, but since controls are pure XF they should work fine everywhere; I don't have tested them and I don't give support, but if you want to contribute let me know and I'll consider PRs.

StateButton

As the name should suggest, this is a Button with off/on state. Properties are:

public string Text{ get; set; }
public bool StateChangeEnabled { get; set; } 
public bool IsPressed { get; set; }
public Color TextColor { get; set; }
public TextPosition TextPosition{ get; set; }
public Color ActiveBackgroundColor{ get; set; }
public Color ActiveTextColor{ get; set; }
public Color BorderColor{ get; set; }
public Color ActiveBorderColor{ get; set; }
public ICommand Command{ get; set; }
public object CommandParameter{ get; set; }
public Thickness Border{ get; set; }
public Thickness InnerPadding{ get; set; }
public FontAttributes FontAttributes{ get; set; }
public string FontFamily{ get; set; }
public double FontSize{ get; set; }
public FileImageSource LeftImage{ get; set; }
public FileImageSource ActiveLeftImage{ get; set; }
public FileImageSource RightImage{ get; set; }
public FileImageSource ActiveRightImage{ get; set; }
public bool RotateImages { get; set; } 

I think there's little to explain: TextColor is the default TextColor, ActiveTextColor is the "pressed" color, and so on. You can place an image to the left and/or right side of the button the can be optionally be animated on click (RotateImages = true).
