Xamarin in May, 2021 - Do you still have issues / bugs that need fixing and that stop you doing what you want to do?
There's some bugs in Xamarin Forms like #1600, #1879 and regressions like #10031, #11011, #13597 that have bothered me for some time.
Use CollectionView and push a page to the navigation stack after selecting an item in the collection view.
