Xamarin bar code scanner ZXing.Net Mobile

I am working on an Xamarin.Forms application. Specifically, I am focusing on the Android platform before I focus on iOS. So far in my application I have implemented login and registration. When I was working on the login and registration features of the application all the work that I did was in the PCL, which would compile into android and iOS.

However, I now want to implement barcode scanning. For this requirement I have decided to use the ZXing.Net.Mobile for Forms library. After reading the documentation it says the following var scanPage = new ZXingScannerPage();. I have download ZXing.Net.Mobile for Forms in my Xamarin.Android solution however it is unable to find the class. Any help or guidance would be great thanks.

If you just install the ZXing.Net.Mobile nuget package, it's unable to find the class.

enter image description here

You could see the ZXing.Net.Mobile source code, the ZXingScannerPage.cs class is included in ZXing.Net.Mobile.Forms. So you need download the ZXing.Net.Mobile.Forms nuget package :

Then you could get started with ZXingScannerPage :

var scanPage = new ZXing.Net.Mobile.Forms.ZXingScannerPage();
