Not working for me either - VS2015 Community Update 3

Update: It is working (and is awesome)! It seems not to work for pre-existing solutions but does work for a new solution. Advice on how to make work for old solutions would be great...?

Not working out of the box even after updating VS 2015 to Update 3.

However, we had to:

  • Clone your repo

  • Build the project

(Requires Visual Studio Extensibility tools Update 3, will prompt within solution explorer if it is missing from your installation, alternatively you can run the setup and click Modify button, that takes you to the a list of installed and not-installed options, scroll down and look for Visual Studio Extensibility tools Update 3)

(Optional, but suggested) Restart Visual Studio to reflect changes of installed extension

  • Once you build the project (from this repo), Run the .visx installer to install the extension (.visx file will be generated in ~/path-of-project/bin/Debug/ ), Restart Visual Studio 2015

  • Open the solution (The one that contains Xamarin.Forms project), double click the related .XAML file and that worked for us.

Request you to assist if there is a better and less challenging way to get the extension working (FYI, searching it within the Extensions and Updates utility did not show any extension).

Working like charm as of now.
