I want my start page be Xamarin.Android (largely for faster loading) and then transition into Xamarin.Forms when Xamarin.Forms is ready to be shown. How would I do this? The Xamarin.Android page should allow interaction in the meantime. I'm thinking either switching activities or hiding the Xamarin.Android view to reveal Xamarin.Forms when it loads. But will hiding the view work? I'm not sure how Xamarin.Forms is shown since it doesn't make use of Android views.
Other concerns include where to detect and show Xamarin.Forms only after it is ready to be shown, and where async is needed. I think I read somewhere that Intent and StartActivity are automatically run in the background if I use those. I suppose that just means GUI doesn't stop?
