C# Moving from Windows Forms to Mobile development

I am an amateur programmer who has been developing hobby projects on windows forms in C# for several years. Some novice experience ranging from stop-motion applications, sql database connectivity, image manipulation, legacy SOAP API interaction etc.

I have always been designer driven in visual studio using windows forms. Application GUI, use the tools to drag buttons, tabs, text areas etc. into the application. Double click the forms buttons or whatever to generate the code that is called on the click event and then put a call to my functions in that.

I really haven't ever given too much care to the GUI itself, windows forms has been just fine. I needed practicality, not sleek looking.

Now I want to develop a mobile application and I am struggling with these basics. I tried using Xamarin, but the designer driven "forms" just isn't what I am used to at all. Is there anything similar to what I am used to to rapidly build the applications looks, enabling me to focus on the functions?
