Xamarin.Essentials
Xamarin.Essentials gives developers essential cross-platform APIs for their mobile applications.
iOS, Android, and UWP offer unique operating system and platform APIs that developers have access to all in C# leveraging Xamarin. It is great that developers have 100% API access in C# with Xamarin, but these APIs are different per platform. This means developers have to learn three different APIs to access platform specific features. With Xamarin.Essentials developers have a single cross-platform API that works with any iOS, Android, or UWP application that can be accessed from shared code no matter how the user interface is created.

Building Xamarin.Essentials
Xamarin.Essentials is built with the new SDK style projects with multi-targeting enabled. This means that all code for iOS, Android, and UWP exist inside of the Xamarin.Essentials project.
If building on Visual Studio 2017 you will need the following SDKs and workloads installed:
Workloads need:
- Xamarin
- .NET Core
- UWP
You will need the following SDKs
- Android 8.1 SDK Installed
- UWP 10.0.16299 SDK Installed
If using Visual Studio for Mac the project can be built at the command line with MSBuild. To change the project type that you are working with simply edit Xamarin.Essentials.csproj and modify the TargetFrameworks for only the project type you want to use.
To build through the command line, navigate to where Xamarin.Essentials.csproj exists then run:
dotnet restore
msbuild Xamarin.Essentials.csproj
