Editor's Notes
- #12 Xamarin is your complete mobile solution. Xamarin Platform is usually what you hear about which is building native iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows Apps all in C# However Xamarin offers a wide range of products for developers to go mobile including Test Cloud, Hockey App, and a way to learn all of mobile with University.
- #13 So we know what we want how do we get there? Let’s talk about the state of mobile development.
- #14 Multiple Teams Multiple Code Bases Expensive & Slow Positive = Great apps delivered to user’s platform Negative = Development hampered by multiple code bases & fragmentation
- #15 Unhappy Users Unhappy Developers Increase in Abandoned Apps Limited to what is implemented
- #21 Coming up next is bubbles
- #30 Xamarin Studio on Mac offers: Android, iOS and Mac development World Class IDE with great features: Code Analysis Upload to Test Flight Git & Subversion Integration Code Completion Code Navigation Easy transition from Visual Studio The same Solution & Projects open in BOTH Xamarin Studio and Visual Studio!
