             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Sample.InputKit"
             xmlns:input="clr-namespace:Plugin.InputKit.Shared.Controls;assembly=Plugin.InputKit"
             x:Class="Sample.InputKit.MainPage">

    <StackLayout Spacing="12" Padding="10,0" VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand">

        <input:AdvancedSlider MaxValue="5000" MinValue="50" StepValue="50" ValuePrefix="Price:" ValueSuffix="€" Title="Choose Budget:"/>

SelectionView

Presents options to user to choose. This view didn't created to static usage. You should Bind a model List as ItemSource, or if you don't use MVVM you can set in page's cs file like below. (You can override ToString method to fix display value or I'll add displayMember property soon.)

SAMPLE:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Sample.InputKit"
             xmlns:input="clr-namespace:Plugin.InputKit.Shared.Controls;assembly=Plugin.InputKit"
             x:Class="Sample.InputKit.MainPage">

    <StackLayout Spacing="12" Padding="10,0" VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand">

        <input:SelectionView x:Name="selectionView" />

    </StackLayout>
</ContentPage>

public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
	{
		public MainPage()
		{
			InitializeComponent();
            selectionView.ItemSource = new[]
            {
                "Option 1","Option 2","Option 3","Option 4","Option 5","Option 6","Option 7","Option 8"
            };
		}
	}

You may use a object list as ItemSource, You can make this. Don't forget override ToString() method in your object.

sample object:

  public class SampleClass
    {
        public int Id { get; set; }
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public override string ToString() => Name;
    }

Usage:

public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
	{
		public MainPage()
		{
			InitializeComponent();
           selectionView.ItemSource = new[]
            {
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 1", Id = 1 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 2", Id = 2 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 3", Id = 3 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 4", Id = 4 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 5", Id = 5 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 6", Id = 6 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 7", Id = 7 },
                new SampleClass{ Name = "Option 8", Id = 8 },
            };
		}
	}

PROPERTIES:

ItemSource: (IList) List of options
SelectedItem: (object) Selected Item from ItemSource
