xamarin forms by using c#

Xamarin.Forms is used for developing native crossplatform apps(android, ios, uwp(windows 10)). You write buisness logic in c# and UI in XAML. This way you can share 100% of your code between platforms.
Howewer XAML based UI looks awfull on android and ios so you wouldn't want to use it if you plan on dilivering your app to end user. Use Xamarin.android and Xamarin.ios instead. This way you share all your buisness logic(around 60-70% of code) and write different UI for each platform.
Xamarin.Forms still great tool for apps oriended for internal use, prototypes and basicly any app that not require native UI
