I have been using xamarin over the past month, exclusively in the office on a mac. Now I want to pull some code down and fiddle out of the office, I use a windows machine at home. I've pulled down my code & opened sample projects but I have absolutely no way of running my code on a device (starting with android, i'll probably do ios on my macbook). The android emulator that came with VS didn't work (something about HAXM) so I installed VS emulator, I've made a device and it's running on my desktop but I can't build to the damn thing!
There seems to be nothing about linking my VS emulator to VS itself. I opened it up in android studio and that seems my emulator no problems. How can I tell VS to run my project to the VS emulator?
To be clear on my problem:
I have installed VS Emulator for android, I want to run an android project on the emulator. I can launch it (the vs emulator) and have the device running but there is no option in visual studio for me to run the app on my emulator.
Install Emulator from Android SDK Manager if you want run in Android device.Memory space required to install the emulator is more so better you connect real device & run it.
