Xamarin.Forms Dropdown aka Spinner

Question

Im porting Web APP to a Xamarin.Forms application im now facing a problem that i can't realy find on the net..

How can i create a dropdown in Xamarin.Forms since there is no option for it i tried to use Compiler directives like:

        #if __ANDROID__
         Android.Widget.Spinner dropdown = new Android.Widget.Spinner(this);
        #endif

The thing is i dont have Android.Content.Context since im in Xamarin.Forms. how can i achieve this to make a spinner aka dropdown in my Xamarin.Forms app.

Thanks in Advance. Stefan

Use a Picker when the user can select between pre defined values.
