Welcome to Material-Xamarin-iOS (Material UI Library for developing native iOS Application in C# with Xamarin)
Material is an animation and graphics framework that is used to create beautiful applications.
Material-Xamarin-iOS is a ported version from Material-Swift. For more information about the original, please visit: https://www.github.com/CosmicMind
The official site says that
"The first version of Material was to bring Material Design to iOS. We considered that a great starting point, but not the entire story. Material 2 is the next chapter, which goes deeper into iOS with refined APIs that simplify Architecture, Photo Library, Reminders, Text Editing, Photo & Video, and much more. In addition to Material Design, we love Apple’s flat UI. Having this in mind, we made it possible to accomplish both UI styles with ease."
We are trying to catch up them as soon as possible. They have to deal with Swift 2, 2.3, 3.0 while C# is the only thing we care about.

As they says that
Material is a growing project and will encounter changes throughout its development. It is recommended that the Changelog be reviewed prior to updating versions. We are also growing up with them :D

A TextField is an excellent way to improve UX. It allows for a placeholder and additional hint details.
A button is used to trigger an action through a touch event. Material comes with a foundational button, and 4 specialized buttons that can be stylized in any way.
A switch is a control component that toggles between on and off states.
A Card is a flexible component that may be configured in any way you like. It has a Toolbar, Bar, and content area that may utilize any UIView type.
An ImageCard is an expansion of the base Card. The Toolbar overlays an image area that sits above the dynamic content area.
The PresenterCard is a completely new card style. It allows for a primary presentation area that may be any UIView type in addition to the content area, Toolbar, and Bar components. The options for this card are endless.
A Menu manages a collection of views. A new MenuItem type has been added that manages a title and button to improve UX and visual beauty.
Toolbars are super flexible and add excellent control to your navigation flow. They manage a set of left and right views with auto aligning title and detail labels.
A SearchBar is a powerful navigation tool that allows for user's input with an instant visual response. A set of left and right views may be added to expand functionality.
A PageTabBar is a new component that links a customizable TabBar to a UIPageViewController making a powerful and visually pleasing component to have in any application. The TabBar can be aligned at the top or bottom of the view controller.
A NavigationController is a specialized view controller that manages a hierarchy of content efficiently, making it easier for users to move within an application.
A NavigationDrawer slides in from the left or right and contains the navigation destinations for your application.
A Snackbar is a new component that is very simple in its behavior and very powerful in its message. It can be used application wide, or isolated to specific view controllers.
PhotoLibrary is a new component that simplifies the Photos framework and allows for beautiful photos found in the Photos application to be used within your application.
Capture is an API that simplifies iOS' AVFoundation framework. It allows for photos and video to easily be captured while managing all the complexities.
