New – AWS Mobile SDK for Xamarin

We want to make sure that developers can use the programming language of their choice to build AWS-powered applications that run on many different types of devices and in a wide variety of environments. As you can see from the AWS Tools page, we already support multiple mobile (iOS, Android, and Unity) and counter-top (Alexa / Echo) devices with SDKs for JavaScript, Java, .Net, Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Go, along with IDE toolkits for Eclipse and Visual Studio.

Today we are adding a developer preview of support for Xamarin to the existing AWS SDK for .NET. Xamarin allows you to build cross-platform C# applications that run on iOS, Android, and Windows devices. The new AWS Mobile SDK for Xamarin gives your Xamarin app access to multiple AWS services including:

You can use the Xamarin Studio IDE to write, debug, and test your code:

You can also use Visual Studio with the Xamarin plugin.
