With latest acquisition, I'd expect things to turn around, but Xamarin Studio isn't there yet. User-unfriendly (for instance the ridiculous exception details dialog, in which you need to click your way deep into the inheritance tree only to see the actual exception message)Īnd far behind Visual Studio in terms of pretty much every functionality I could think of, starting with poor refactoring capabilities. Also, no Unity Integration like on the PC for either of them. I prefer VS Mac to VS Code for 95 of things- HOWEVER there are no addons/plugins on VS Mac while VS Code can use the same Plugins for Visual Studio on the PC. the drop-down filenames list for file search popping up beyond the screen edge in full-screen mode, or the text cursor going missing), If you want a more IDE'ish environment, you could look at Rider.
With lots of irritating visual quirks (eg. I mean no disrespect for its creators, but I found it: I used Xamarin Studio on OSX for about a month (just last March). If you're going to debug on iOS, it's a bit faster to be directly piped in to the simulator or device and eliminate going through the. For me this is the best reason to start using Visual Studio. Visual Studio will become the only IDE for both Mac and Windows to develop Xamarin Apps. Unsurprisingly, a bit of a resource hog along with it, still one of the best IDEs in the world. Xamarin Studio is quite capable but lacks the strength of VS's intellisense but XS does quite a nice job with it. 2 It's been a while since the support for XS on Windows was dropped and the same will eventually happen to XS for Mac. The former one is a full-fledged, mature juggernaut of an IDE.
At any rate, Visual Studio and Xamarin Studio can hardly be compared. I'm not sure if your question isn't out of place on this site.
