BoxView Clock

A classic analog clock realized entirely with BoxView.

Although Xamarin.Forms doesn't have a vector graphics programming interface, it does have a BoxView. Although normally used for displaying rectangular blocks of color, BoxView can be sized, positioned, and rotated. This is enough to render a classic analog clock.

This sample is described in more detail in the article on BoxView.
