- Aldo_MX 12y agoFrom the article: With Visual Studio 2015 Preview you can target Android and edit-compile-debug regardless of your choice of programming models: JavaScript (or TypeScript) with Cordova, C++, or C# with Xamarin.

- Avalaxy 12y agoI wonder how much effort it would be to support C# as well, without Xamarin. Would they ever do that? Or would they prefer to not hurt Xamarin (or maybe Google/Apple) too much by offering their own C# crossplatform development?
- greyskull 12y agoI don't see what they would gain from a separate initiative when Xamarin has done all that work. They're "partnered", after all.
- on_and_off 12y agoXamarin. It is a good solution in order to make a small applications (let's say a showcase/order app for a small restaurant) on iOS and Android at the same time. For more ambitious apps, IMO the overhead will never be worth it.
