Xamarin.Forms Pages represent cross-platform mobile application screens.
All the page types that are described below derive from the Xamarin.Forms Page class. These visual elements occupy all or most of the screen. A Page object represents a ViewController in iOS and a Page in the Universal Windows Platform. On Android, each page takes up the screen like an Activity, but Xamarin.Forms pages are not Activity objects.
Xamarin.Forms supports the following page types:
| Type | Description | Appearance |
|---|---|---|
ContentPage |
ContentPage is the simplest and most common type of page. Set the Content property to a single View object, which is most often a Layout such as StackLayout, Grid, or ScrollView.API Documentation |

FlyoutPage |
A FlyoutPage manages two panes of information. Set the Flyout property to a page generally showing a list or menu. Set the Detail property to a page showing a selected item from the flyout page. The IsPresented property governs whether the flyout or detail page is visible.API Documentation / Guide |

NavigationPage |
The NavigationPage manages navigation among other pages using a stack-based architecture. When using page navigation in your application, an instance of the home page should be passed to the constructor of a NavigationPage object.API Documentation / Guide |
