Beginner Introduction to Mobile App development with Xamarin

Build cross-platform apps for IOS, Android or Windows using Xamarin

Xamarin is a software platform that enables you to create cross platform apps that will work on the top three platforms (Android, IOS, Windows) using the same codebase . The programming language used by Xamarin is C#.

Xamarin has in a way solved a problem most developers face and that is developing the same app multiple times for each of the top three platforms : Android , IOS and Windows. Without Xamarin developers will have to use different development tools and programming languages to develop the same app for the top three platforms.
