Xamarin for Windows Developers 101: Introduction

OK so you have been creating Windows apps for ages including UWP. You have developed apps that run on the Windows desktop and the phone.

You can also code in Visual Studio and deploy to an Android device. That will be the topic of a subsequent blog as I wish in this first instance to use the generic Android develop environment (Android Studio). I will then cover Android specific development in Visual Studio (2013) using a plugin. The hard part of the installation is getting ADB set up.
