James Montemagno: "Go Mobile with C#, Visual Studio, and Xamarin" | Starsconf 2017
The mobile landscape continues to expand and evolve at a rapid pace. Users expect great native experiences in the palm of their hands on each and every platform. A major hurdle for developers today is the separate programming language and tools to learn and maintain for each platform. Even if you tackle the burden of learning Objective-C, Swift, or Java, you'll still have to manage multiple code bases, which can be a nightmare for any development team large or small. It doesn't have to be this way as you can create Android, iOS, Windows apps leveraging the .NET framework and everything you love about C#. In this session, you'll learn about the technology that Xamarin offers and how it works to enable developers to leverage a shared C# code base across all mobile platforms.
