XTwitter is a basic Twitter client implemented in Xamarin.Forms, and it has served as a demo for the first Meetup of Barcelona Mobile .NET Developers Group.

The demo allows:

• To load the last 40 tweets from the timeline of the connected user.
• To visualize the detail of a tweet.
• To make a tweet and the possibility of adding an image to it.

Before launching XTwitter, it is necessary to modify the API Keys in other to load the timeline of a specific user, and being ablle to make tweet in its name. These keys are referenced in the TwitterApiData.cs, located in the XTwitter.Forms project.

public const string TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN = "EDIT";
public const string TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = "EDIT";
public const string TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY = "EDIT";
public const string TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET = "EDIT";

In other to get these keys it is necessary:

• To create an app in the Twitter Application Manager.
• To go to Key and Access Tokens.
