GitHub vs Xamarin: Which is a better fit?

I love that the developers release their projects on there to share with the world. It is really cost efficient for people who don’t have much money to spend but need good quality software.

Sometimes when there is a long pull request it can be quite tedious to look over and see recent changes. Also bad merge operations can cause a world of trouble that is difficult to reverse.

GitHub has great documentation available, it is a great tool for code collaboration and remote collaboration, and provides a nice and simple way to have code and version history available online.

The cons of this is that there is no certainty that each development works well or that it has a bug that may generate a problem or error.

I like how it's easy to use and intuitive, but also offers enough customization for when we need it. I would recommend this to anyone in the market for a good version control software.

The search function is quite often bad. Also a dark mode is missing.

Community is super friendly and it’s a great platform to work on certain coding activities with a group of people.

It also sadly has no mobile app/mobile support at all.

Overall, Xamarin is an excellent choice for cross-platform development. It is easy to use, reliable, and the code sharing feature is incredibly helpful for saving time and effort.

But it can be confusing when you're looking at examples and unsure of how it applies to your own code.

Xamarin will not disappoint him if he used it intelligently, he can also put a lot of integration with other VIsual Studio projects and not die in the process.

For the standard developer, the biggest pain is the debugging experience.

Xamarin an efficient cross application development platform works with #C and dot net frameworks. Xamarin form design is pretty much attractive as we can code it to make brilliant UI.

So, Xamarin let you take shortcuts to make an app, but it can lead to struggles with the build. Also, if you’re using Xamarin free version then you will be very limited compared to the full version.

I like being able to integrate it into my favourite IDE visual studio as well as being able to use my favourite programming language, C# to develop apps for android and windows.

C and it is familiar with visual studio so if i do not know studio then it is difficult job.
