The Xamarin Studio IDE


After creating POIApp, the project will be opened within the environment.

The following screenshot depicts Xamarin Studio after the project has been created:

Like any other modern IDE, Xamarin Studio is organized with a set of menus at the top of the screen, a context-sensitive toolbar below it, and a series of dockable pads for viewing and manipulating various types of content. By default, Xamarin Studio is configured with the following options:

  • The Solution pad is docked on the left-hand side and allows you to explore the structure and content contained in the project

  • Editor windows are in the middle and present the content of files for viewing and manipulation

  • Task-specific pads are collapsed on the right-hand side and bottom and can be expanded by hovering over the icon and caption

Additional pads can be accessed by navigating to View | Pads.
