I'm new on creating Xamarin projects.
What is the difference between portable and shared projects ?
I guess one is portable and the other is shared but what is the aim of these
and which one I should use for my cross-platform forms mobile applicaton?
Thanks in advance
Taken directly from Xamarin website:
Shared Projects – Use the Shared Asset Project type to organize your source code, and use #if compiler directives as required to manage platform-specific requirements.
Portable Class Libraries – Create a Portable Class Library (PCL) targeting the platforms you wish to support, and use Interfaces to provide platform-specific functionality.
