Episode 91 of Visual Studio Toolbox
This is the second of a four part series on building cross platform apps using Xamarin and C#. In this episode I am joined by James Montemagno, a developer evangelist at Xamarin, who gives us a deep dive into code sharing with Portable Class Libraries on Android, iOS, and Windows platforms. We will see how to leverage popular PCL libraries from NuGet and how to share 80%+ business logic from a single PCL in an Android, iOS, and Windows Phone 8 application.
