Windows Phone App (Creating a Project) in VS 2017


I recently installed VS 2017 community and am unable to find any option to create a "blank windows phone app" project. Yes I have Xamarin installed (Along with the emulators). Has it been removed since Windows phone app development is included via UWP (Universal Apps) project option? Thanks


Solution

  • Yes, it is not supported any more. You can find it for example here

    The Visual Studio team has determined that this issue is not a bug. Unfortunately, the Cordova tools in VS 2017 does not support Windows 8.1 development.
