SfListView or SfDataGrid?

We have a UI pattern where we display lists of things, and those things might need to be deleted (Xamarin Forms UWP app).  We would like the ability to add a radiobutton where the user would select a row by clicking the radiobutton in the row, and then hit a delete button to delete that row.

Using Syncfusion controls, what is a recommended way to go here?  The control must allow the ability to click/select the row as well as just selecting the radio button (without invoking the selection on the row).  Would SfListView or SfDataGrid work here (or something else?)?  Anything we need to keep in mind to achieve the functionality we are looking for here?

Hi John, 
  
Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 
  
We have checked your query. Based on your requirement if you have single list of items you can achieve your requirement using SfListView. 
  
And instead if you have multiple columns you can achieve your requirement using SfDataGrid control. We have prepared sample in both SfListView and in SfDataGrid. You can prefer based on your requirement. 
  
SfListView sample: https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/145689/ze/ListViewSample-924016563

Thanks for the examples.  I see you used a toggle switch for the row selector.  Can you show me an example with a radiobutton instead please?

Hi John, 
  
Thank you for the update. 
  
Xamarin Forms does not have default support for RadioButton control. So, as per your requirement, we have modified the samples with SfRadioButtoncontrol in the ItemTemplate and GridTemplateColumn. Please find the sample from the below link. 
  
  
  
Please refer the following documentation link for getting started with SfRadioButton control.

Thanks.  I had actually created a version of this on my own, and your sample has the same issue as mine.  Namely, when you click the radio button, previous ones clicked keep their "checked" state.  How can the sample be modified so only one radio button is "checked" at a time?
