Why can not I choose a PCL Project in Xamarin Forms?


At the moment of creating a new project, only shared project and standard .NET come out.

Before I could only choose shared project and PCL project.


Solution

  • .NET Standard has replaced PCL. .NET Standard 2.0 now offers a larger API surface then before.
