GeneralXamarin Forms in VS2017 Pin

I know nothing at all about Xamarin Forms....This isn't a programming question. It'a plea for guidance & direction.

Anyone know of any decent tutorials on Xamarin Forms VS2017? I've been searching/googling and all I can find is Xamarin Forms VS2015, which of course is entirely different (for the life of me I can't understand why). The templates and generated projects/code for 2015 are totally different than that of 2017 Confused | :confused: Confused | :confused:

Just now I created a Xamarin Forms VS2017 solution. It generates the projects. I do a build and get errors for various types, both build and deployment. It appears to me that it is either not setup/configured correctly, or it's just plain buggy.

I've tried this a few tims over the years with 2015 and now 2017, and I keep seeing the same thing. I follow a Microsoft/Linked In/Pluralsight tutorial and as soon as I try to build/run I get many different types of errors.

I can't seem to get started. What am I doing wrong? how do I get going on this?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.
