Xamarin is a popular cross-platform application development tool that allows creating applications for Android, iOS, and Windows with reusable codebase. The technology stack is compatible with various operating systems and this makes the applications platform-independent and gives Mobile Apps with Xamarin a much-needed push by reducing time and effort.
While developing mobile applications for a business, a choice between native and cross-platform app is a vital decision to be made early on in the planning and development phase of an app to save time, money, and effort. Undoubtedly, both platforms, Native and Xamarin provide businesses a broader range of audience. However,
Xamarin mobile application development is making its way in the competitive business market due to its shared operating environment, single codebase and shorter go live time period.
With no logical complications, Xamarin reduces development time and delivers a seamless user experience. When it comes to
Xamarin mobile development for Android & iOS, it provides user-friendly, reliable, secure, and easily accessible applications.
Here are the top 6 reasons for choosing Xamarin for your mobile app development project:

Convenient and Profitable
Application coding with Xamarin is simple yet profitable. With this open-source platform, the development process takes less time and offers standardized Xamarin UI controls, auto-update, and synchronization. Moreover, Xamarin Test Cloud ensures easy testing of multi-platform applications.
Unlike native app development, Xamarin works on a sharable code technique. The reusability of the C# codebase in Xamarin simplifies the process of writing applications to run on different devices. Also, the separate user interface for each platform makes it easier to share business logic.
Portable and robust class libraries in Xamarin make it easy for developers to integrate native open source and third-party libraries for iOS and Android.
It enables the developers to add third-party components and add-ins to the projects. Easy installation of Xamarin component package provides access to UI components, cloud services, Pinterest, Facebook, plus themes, and game development components.
The lower development costs and minimal maintenance make Xamarin the best choice for building applications for any business. It makes app development quick, stress-free, and cost-effective. Besides, choosing Xamarin over other platforms can help save cost and time as well.
Wrapping Up
By leveraging Xamarin for iOS, Android, and Windows app development, developers can undertake the projects using a single shared and common C#/.NET codebase. The newest edition of Visual Studio 2019 v16.5 has provided Xamarin devs many benefits in the form of features such as faster integration with Xamarin hot restart, Android Apply Changes, Faster Android Startup, XAML Document Outline, etc. Visual Studio components enhance the complete app building experience.
The advantages discussed above give several great reasons to choose Xamarin over others for mobile app development.
