All the mobile development company started using visual studio in both Windows and Mac, it is great improvement after Microsoft acquires Xamarin.Įvery developer and company should be very clear, Microsoft isn’t throwing away Xamarin. Microsoft then integrated Xamarin into Visual Studio. In 2016, Xamarin has been acquired by Microsoft, after that Xamarin is open source and removed payment options.

On May 16, 2011, Miguel de Icaza announced on his blog that Mono would be developed and supported by Xamarin. Let’s go back a bit in time first, the name Xamarin comes from the name of the Tamarin monkey, replacing the leading T with an X.

Xamarin was released 10 years before, it has helped many developers to develop mobile apps with multi-platform with native feel but now it’s time to say goodbye to Xamarin and happily welcome. Posted by Suthahar Jegatheesan on Wednesday, April 14, 2021
