2023-09-11T09:08:08.2366667+00:00 Hello,
As Bruce said, Xamarin support will end on May 1, 2024 for all Xamarin SDKs. It's recommended that you try to use MAUI, see Xamarin Support Policy
In addition, please see the What options do I have instead of Visual Studio for Mac? section of the Visual Studio for Mac Retirement Announcement blog.
The .Net MAUI extension for VS Code is currently in preview.
If you have questions about the announcement, please ask them in the Visual Studio for Mac Retirement Announcement blog comments.
Best Regards,
Wenyan Zhang
