I have the pleasure to announce that we just published a new
playlist on the Oracle Mobile Platform channel. The six episodes will tell all
you need to know about the MCS Software Development
Kit for Xamarin applications, including such topics as:
- Xamarin and Oracle MCS:
An Overview - Configuring the Xamarin MCS
SDK - Authentication for Xamarin
Apps - Configuring
Xamarin Apps For Push Notifications - Enabling Analytics on
Xamarin Apps - Examples of the
Storage API for Xamarin
Some of you probably find this announcement surprising, given the recent news that Microsoft has bought Xamarin. However, this transaction does not change the fact that Oracle wants MCS to be truly client-agnostic. All mobile developers are first-class citizens on MCS. Wish to go native? We offer SDKs for Android, iOS and Windows. Want to use a cross-platform mobile JavaScript toolkit like Sencha Touch or Oracle’s own JavaScript Extension Toolkit? You’re covered. Using Oracle MAF? You can leverage the MAF MCS Utility.
It was a pleasure for me to get back to my C# roots in order to record those videos. Whatever lies ahead, you can expect Oracle to do what is necessary to make Xamarin and Microsoft mobile developers right at home on MCS.
