This course is normally $1995, though there are a limited number of seats, so you should sign up soon if you're an interested MSDN subscriber. Starting in January, MSDN subscribers will get free access to Xamarin University, Xamarin's online training course for building native iOS, Android, and Windows apps with C# in just 30 days. So Xamarin immediately supports the just-released Visual Studio 2013, and today Xamarin provided integration for Microsoft's Portable Library projects in iOS and Android apps, which it says will make it easier than ever for developers to share code across devices. Microsoft will work with Xamarin to make Xamarin's tools and services better integrated into Visual Studio. This new partnership spans the following three areas: The difference between all these things is staggering.
NET APIs in Visual Studio, but need to learn new languages (Objective-C, Java), APIs/SDKs (iOS SDK, Android SDK) and developer environments (Xcode, Eclipse) in order to create apps for iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch) and Android devices. Why is this a big deal? Microsoft developers currently use languages like C# with Windows Runtime or. What this basically means is developers familiar with Visual Studio and C# will be able to easily and inexpensively use the best developer IDE and programming language available to write apps that run natively on Windows, iOS and Android. Xamarin played a role in the keynote at the Visual Studio 2013 launch event today, at which Microsoft announced an important partnership with the firm that will bring Xamarin's cross-platform prowess to developers on the Microsoft stack. But a new Xamarin initiative seeks to put a stop to that. But with popular mobile app platforms like Android and iOS threatening Windows, developers face considerable hurdles porting their apps between each platform. The ability to write software code once and run it anywhere has been a regular fixture of the personal computing industry, from the early days of Microsoft p-code, Sun's Java, and of course.
