I'm trying to find a way to put a close ToolBarItem on the left of my ToolBar.
To be more explicit, here are some screenshots:
For Android:
For iOS:
The problem is not about to display icon istead of text, I'm using Iconize for that. The problem is about to put ToolBarItem to the left for both iOS and Android.
I've found this renderer for iOS (not tried yet):

You need to write Custom renderer to implement left side tool bar items. Detailed implementation for this is explained here https://timeyoutake.it/2016/01/02/creating-a-left-toolbaritem-in-xamarin-forms/

I need to design bottom navigation bar like I attached image using xamarin.forms common code for both android and IOS. Can anybody refer any link or library tool to do this?
You should check the xamarin community toolkit, this is certainly possible to create with the tabview.

I develop Xamarin.Forms app (latest version of Xamarin), I'm targeting only Android. I use TabbedPage which displays bar on the top of the screen. I want to make my custom visual item that will look like the TabbedPage bar. Where can I find out font size, font type, background color, margins etc so I can make my custom visual item that will look like TabbedPage bar?
As you said that you want to create tabbed page I think you should use Xamarin.forms controls (https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/xamarin-forms/application-fundamentals/navigation/tabbed-page/). But if you want to create custom tabbed then you have to use custom renderer for top navigation bar.
Im new in Xamarin, for the last couple of days i've been doing some searching on Side menu panel that supports both Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Android and can include an image at the top of it like the screenshot shown below.

Any components in mind? if there is no component how can i do it by myself?
Android has the Navigation Draw for side slide out menus.
For iOS there are quite a few components such as Flyout Navigation, ActionTray and Sidebar Navigation
How can I add a badge to one of TabbedPage ToolBarItems? I create all my pages and tabs in shared code (forms) and I see no way of doing it there (I can just set name, icon). Probably I'll have to do it specifically for each platform (let's say iOS is enough), but in a way that I can control badge value from shared code- I need the badge to have value of count of list items (list is inside that tab), so I'll need to update it as the list is changing.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Only things that exists on both iOS and Android platforms are implemented in Xamarin.Forms. And it seems like there are no badges out of the box for Android.
But you still can implement a custom renderer for your TabBarItem which will use the iOS badge and some Android library for this.
I want to make a iphone like slide to unlock slider within xamarin forms.
So I want to disable the slider to be clicked on 100%.
I tried to add a tap gesture recognizer but unfortunatly this doesn't work/
Anyone with ideas?
Xamarin Forms can't work with anything more complicated than tap. You have to implement a custom renderer. There is an example which does what you want:
