INSTALL XAMARIN FOR VISUAL STUDIO 2017 COMMUNITY INSTALL
The heavy lifting of provisioning an iOS device is handled for you in less than 30 seconds.įiguring out what Android SDKs to install for mobile development can be time-consuming. In Visual Studio 2017 version 15.7, there’s a streamlined experience to request a development certificate, generate a signing key, add a device in the Developer Center, and create a provisioning profile, all with a single button click. We have made iOS device provisioning for development easier.
The Xamarin.Forms XAML editing experience is now powered by the same IntelliSense engine that powers WPF and UWP, bringing many enhancements to developers, including improved matching, light bulb suggestions, code navigation, linting, resource completion, and markup extension completion. Xamarin.Forms developers using Visual Studio 2017 version 15.7 will find a vastly improved IntelliSense experience. In this post, we’ll take a look at the new functionality for mobile developers in Visual Studio 2017 version 15.7 preview 3. This makes it safe to try without risking your production development environment. The release is available as a preview, which, like all Visual Studio previews, is a separate and sandboxed installation from your stable one. This release sports a brand new IntelliSense experience for Xamarin.Forms, automatic iOS provisioning, a new feature for installing Android SDKs on-demand, brand new iOS and Android project templates, and more!
Visual Studio 2017 version 15.7 Preview 3 was released today (April 9, 2018) and includes many improvements for mobile developers in Visual Studio.
