Is it possible to develop a portable Xamarin mobile (Android) application with MonoDevelop on Linux?
I'm using Linux Mint, I have installed MonoDevelop with the guides MonoDevelop linux and MonoDevelop Ubuntu-Debian. After installing, I have expected, when creating a project, to find out a project type similar to "Xamarin Android Application" or something.
The only project type mentioning cross-platform + Xamarin is this:
The guides on Xamarin site only applies to Xamarin Studio. I am lost, is there something broken in my installation or it is simply impossible to use MonoDevelop to develop Xamarin for mobile Android applications (and I totally misunderstood)?
In case, can you point me to a guide or resource about developing Xamarin portable mobile apps with MonoDevelop?
PS: There is one Stack Overflow question with last comment of year 2012, and, since then, lot things have changed: Xamarin merge with NET.foundation, the open source release of Xamarin SDK. Clearly I have misunderstood about Linux support availability. I have thought the question should be re-formulated. I hope this match the policies.
Xamarin.Androidcompiling on Linux as he was the first to do it outside of the Xamarin devs. The Xamarin Studio Android Add-Ins are not open source and thus he was using Android Studio for axml editing, VSCode for C# editing along with a bunch of build/deploy scripts to glue it together. Not sure what his debug experience was like. You should ask on the gitter channel – SushiHangover
