Example
Images are very important parts of any application. They provide the opportunity to inject additional visual elements as well as branding into your application. Not to mention that images are typically more interesting to look at than text or buttons. You can use an Image as a standalone element within your application, but an Image element can also be added to other View elements such as a Button.
XAML
<Image Aspect="AspectFit" Source="http://d2g29cya9iq7ip.cloudfront.net/co
ntent/images/company/aboutus-video-bg.png?v=25072014072745"/>
Code
var image = new Image {
Aspect = Aspect.AspectFit,
Source = ImageSource.FromUri(new Uri("http://d2g29cya9iq7ip.cloudfron
t.net/content/images/company/aboutus-video-bg.png?v=25072014072745"))
};
