How to add Checkbox in Xamarin.Forms in Xaml file?

I'm completely new to xamarin.forms, I need to add a checkbox, radio buttons and drop down list. I tried some samples from net but I'm not able to get the checkbox. Can anyone help me to achieve this in xamarin.forms?

Xaml file

<toolkit:CheckBox Text ="Employee"
                  FontSize="20"
                  CheckedChanged ="OnClicked"/>

or

<controls:CheckBox DefaultText="Default text"
                               HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
                               TextColor="Green"
                               FontSize="25"
                               FontName="AmericanTypewriter"/>

Some links or sample code will make it easier to understand.

What is XAML in Xamarin forms?

In a Xamarin. Forms application, XAML is mostly used to define the visual contents of a page and works together with a C# code-behind file. The code-behind file provides code support for the markup.

Since Xamarin.Forms 4.1.0 (shipped Summer 2019) there is a Checkbox built-in! Preferrably we use this in the future. https://devblogs.microsoft.com/xamarin/checkbox-xamarin-forms-4-1-0-pre-release/

Just an example:

<CheckBox IsChecked="True" IsEnabled="False" HorizontalOptions="End" Margin="0"/>
