How can I implement advanced dependency injection in Xamarin.Forms?

You can use a service container like Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection to manage your dependencies. Would you like a code example?

Yes, please provide a code example for setting it up.

First, install the Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection package. Then, set up your service container in the App.xaml.cs file like this:

public partial class App : Application
{
    public App()
    {
        var serviceCollection = new ServiceCollection();
        ConfigureServices(serviceCollection);
        var serviceProvider = serviceCollection.BuildServiceProvider();

        MainPage = new MainPage(serviceProvider.GetService<IMyService>());
    }

    private void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {
        services.AddSingleton<IMyService, MyService>();
    }
}

What if I want to use a different lifetime for my services?

You can specify the lifetime when registering your services. Use AddTransient for transient services or AddScoped for scoped services. Would you like to know more about these lifetimes?
