Developer competitions always provide an opportunity to explore new things. Who’s going to say no to a developer competition if it teaches you how to use the software and also offers great prizes?

Our primary focus at Syncfusion is to make developers’ lives easier by providing a huge number of amazing customer controls and tools that will help them every day.

We’re launching this Xamarin Holiday Challenge today to help you understand how easy it is to add our Xamarin controls and prebuilt XAML pages from the Essential UI Kit to your project. You’re only going to complete the challenge by following the steps we have created for you, and you’ll immediately be given the chance to win our prizes.

## The challenge

By the end of this Xamarin Holiday Challenge, you will have learned how to use the Essential UI Kit and Syncfusion controls to create basic views for a personalized calendar app with navigation.

Follow this guide if you are using [Windows](https://www.syncfusion.com/xamarin-holiday-challenge/xamarin-holiday-challenge-windows), or follow this [MacOS](https://www.syncfusion.com/xamarin-holiday-challenge/xamarin-holiday-challenge-mac) guide.

Once you have exactly followed the steps listed for Windows or MacOS, you will have built the pages and navigation for a basic personalized calendar and scheduling app. Making the proper login authentication and feeding the appointment data to the scheduler makes this a complete app.
