适用于Android的Visual Studio Xamarin模拟器未显示

Question

I am new to mobile development. So i am using xamarin for this purpose. I have following this sample code as a starter in mobile development.

I am using visual studio 15 for it. I have followed all the steps mentioned in sample code. For now i want it to run only on android, so i have chosen .Droid as my Startup project, but on Debug Target i cannot find Xamarin Emulator for android all i find is the android emulators list. Please see the image bellow

While on clicking the Manage Virual Devices i get the following list of devices as shown in bellow image

I have searched many articles on it but couldn't find any solution

Any help would be appreciated

Answer 1

Xamarin Emulator for android isn't a specific emulator. The android emulator's list is a list of devices for you to emulate; the virtual devices page is a list of devices/OS versions emulators that can be downloaded.

Select/Download an emulator profile in the device/size/OS version that fits your needs and run your code.
