Well - I don't know. It works for me.
Even have generic auto-formatting pages driven by database table and creating generic tables based on SQL return (if any), including column headers - and all solid enough so a DBA with now HTML/CSS (or anything beyond VB6) can create reports. Sizing and positioning options all built in options, or safely ignored by defaults - even mixable, and its handled.
Now I will admit that they're all .php files - but that shouldn't make a difference.
Also, I have not the least qualm about using tables - and poop in the direction of anyone who thinks I ought not.

Holy crap!

You have to learn to think in CSS. It offers flexibility, and with that comes issues until it's mastered.

That would be funny if it wasn't so true, I used to dream in a language when I was learning it. VB then c# have both driven nightmares in the early learning stages.
I refuse to learn the current web stack as I shudder to think what my sub conscious would deliver if it had HTML and CSS to play with.

I have to mutilate the mind?
Always assume the most illogical?
At least you'd always be thinking out of the box, I never get that alignment right!
At this point I'm happy when "height" actually sets height (spoiler: most of the time it doesn't)

Ha ha. Height is one of those old school religious concepts that just got carried over into CSS. The best way to think of it in web land is there is no height. You can still make it work though, you just have to dance around some issues.
Look at this way, if it were easy, then um it would be easy. Ha ha.

Hi
Has anyone ever gotten Xamarin.forms for android to work?
I have been battling xamarin installation for about 3 weeks now and all i am getting are errors.
I have removed VS, reinstalled it, installed, reinstalled android sdk,xamarin etc to no avail.
I think i will just go back to Ionic, never had this kind of problems.
The errors are so vague, and checking online i can see so many people having the same issues without any solution for them
Any framework/platform shouldn't be this difficult to install and run.
in my language, Na wa o!(i.e its a wonder o)

Xamarin Form (for Android, iOS and even WinPhone) user here!
What is your problem exactly?
The problem which plagued me the most is everything seems to work fine but build fail. But in the log file it tells of a zip file to download an unzip in some specific location. DO what it tells and it fixes the problem for good.

Weird.
I installed VS2015, did what it told me to do, and it worked right out of the box...IIRC, it was months ago.

Me too. Although I develop for Xamarin.Android exclusively (right now).

Just a quick hint, do not use standalone installers. Let the installer itself manage everything. Do (as said earlier) as it says and you'll be left alone.

I've developed several apps using Xamarin and think it's a great development environment. What problems are you having specifically?
I also use Telerik Platform which is another awesome development environment for creating mobile apps.
