Build an cross platform iOS, Android, and UWP App in Xamarin Forms with Couchbase Lite

This repo is designed to show you an app that allows users to log in and make changes to their user profile information. User profile information is persisted as a Document in the local Couchbase Lite Database. When the user logs out and logs back in again, the profile information is loaded from the Database.

Full documentation can be found on the Couchbase Developer Portal.

• Build and run the project.
• Verify that you see the login screen.
