As part of our participation in the [Xamarin Evolve 2014](http://evolve.xamarin.com)
 conference this week, Syncfusion is excited to reveal a new control suite for cross-platform mobile development: [Essential Studio® for Xamarin](https://www.syncfusion.com/xamarin-ui-controls)
. We’ve incorporated some of your favorite data visualization and file-format components from Syncfusion with [Xamarin.Forms](http://xamarin.com/forms)
, an API that enables developers to use a single C# codebase to build UIs for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone apps.
