## Why did I create this?
As a user group organizer of ([Seattle Mobile .NET Developers Group](http://www.meetup.com/SeattleMobileDevelopers/)) I found our right away that there was an issue with finding out not only how many people attended the event but also who was there. I thought that there had to be a better way of checking people in at the door and the using this data to do giveaways as well. After realizing that Meetup.com had a great restful API that I could tap into I spent my holiday break between Dec 24th and Dec 30th 2013 to create Meetup Manager v1 using MVVMCross.

You can now easily visualize your groups performance over time with beautiful charts and at the start of August 2015 I completely re-wrote Meetup Manager using Xamarin.Forms to create a shared user interface and also give it a huge refresh.

## How much code is shared?

I have included an "Analysis Project", which will count the shared lines of code. 95%+ of the code is shared between projects. All of the Models, Services, View Models, Views, and tons of helper classes are all found in one single PCL library.

## How you can test it.

Simply download the app from the app store or download the code and run! It is that simple as I have provided sample API keys to get you going.
