visual studio - Xamarin IDE and visualstudio for windows +Mvvmcross -


i have confusions ide use mvvmcross

a) visualstudio (vs) uses xamrarin.ios , xamarin.android plugin ios , android development. can use pcl(portable class libraries) , mvvmcross/monocross frameworks in vs? see pcl option on vs but, don't see support android & ios. need install additional plugin pcl support these 2 platforms well?

b) xamarin ide supports android , ios development on mac but, true xamarin doesn't support mono.ios on windows? isn't strange visual studio can use network mac ios development why not xamarin studio? thank time.

mvvmcross uses profile104 portable class library development. can develop profile without installing android , ios. mapping of pcl profile platforms is, however, quite confusing (it's not obvious) easiest way find create profile104 pcl is:

i have customers develop in medium size teams people have xamarin tools installed - people have windows tools , work on pcls using unit tests , using windowsphone/store user interfaces.

b) xamarin ide supports android , ios development on mac but, true xamarin doesn't support mono.ios on windows?

yes, true.

isn't strange visual studio can use network mac ios development why not xamarin studio?

this may feel strange, believe xamarin listening customers.

i believe, reason customers wanted windows support ios because wanted use visual studio , wanted use plugins resharper. xamarin provided in 2.0 release.

it true have added ios functionality xamarinstudio windows - (i believe) wasn't of customers asking - adding have created more work (both in creating , maintaining it) without adding significant benefit (imo)
