Xamarin application - Online - Offline - Online synch #9236

We are looking to build an app using Xamarin so field users can update work from their tablet, ie a subset of the data and options held in aspnetzero backend.

They will be in locations where they may not have data connection sometimes, but need to still be able to update forms and job data.

Then when they come into coverage, they will have those updates sent back to the server, and also pull down new data/jobs.

This is a very normal situation and although there is not much support for this scenario in the aspnetzero template, what is the best approach components/tools for this?

Is the provided Xamarin demo app a good starting point, or is it just better to start fresh?

    Hi @andrewt,

    You need some kind of offline storage like SQLite or LiteDB where you can store offline data and sync it back with the server DB when the connectivity is restored.
