Above all the pros and cons,I enjoy a lot using this tool which helped me in many aspects.I feel like this tool with better costumer support will be so far the best tool in this category.
Sometimes error codes are difficult to find out what the real reason for it is. As is with a lot of other Microsoft products, fatal errors do happen without a documented or known reason.
Its a great Windows IDE and has been improved a lot since the start of LTS feature on Windows, it has lots of features and is very easy and beautiful to look at.
When publishing databases and errors occur, the logs are really poor and make it hard to find the problems.
It helps to develop and deploy all my applications and services faster with the best quality.
Modules/plugins may not work due to insufficient permissions, which can be quite frustrating, particularly as it's not readily apparent.
It has a good user experience and has a good integration with git. If you are working with azure or azure devops you will enjoy how it easily integrates with these tools.
The newer versions do not always have an offline installer and its a pain to have to download the app again onto a new PC.
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.
Kevin: Hi, this is Kevin. I'm a product owner and I give Microsoft Visual Studios a four out of five, and for more reviews like this, please click below. I use Microsoft Visual Studio with Python Code. Microsoft Visual Studios allows multiple different softwares to run within it, and I use it for Python, which is a programming language that we use for spreadsheets and other analytical tools. What I like about Microsoft Visual Studios is it's a Microsoft product, so it's included with our other Microsoft Suites. It has very similar menus across the top in the ribbon, and it's fairly reliable, and I feel secure using it. What I don't like about Microsoft Visual Studios is because it's a one-size-fits-many, it's not tailored to the software that we use it with currently, so your mileage may vary.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
