Getting Started with Platform Uno 

So when Microsoft acquired Xamarin in 2016 and started integrating the Xamarin Visual Studio plugins more with the standard VS features, I knew I had to try and switch over to take advantage of the powerful IDE and language. Some of the immediate benefits I gained from the switch are:

• Simple asynchronous programming
• Access to powerful plugins like ReSharper
• Freedom to work in Windows or OSX
• Access to powerful debugging tools for the Android on Windows (debugging iOS on Mac side is good but can be buggy).
• Access to built in NuGet package management for third party libraries
