Android and Java win 10 compatibility - compatibility

I would like to learn android using android studio. But I do not know which java sdk, android sdk and android studio are win 10 compatible? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Start from here: https://developer.android.com/studio/intro
You don't have to worry about compatibility as Windows 10 is the latest and latest version of Android Studio is compatible with it.
The latest version of Android Studio is 3.5 at the time of writing this.

Xamarin forms ios sdk versions mismatch issue

I recently updated my Visual studio for windows and mac. I also updated the Xcode to 10.2. The visual studio 2017 for windows version is 15.9.11 and the xamarin ios sdk version is 12.4.0.64. My visual studio version of mac 2019 community is 8.0.2 and xamarin ios version is 12.8.0. Why I did these updates is I got a mono version mismatch issue when compiling ios app. After these updates the mono version conflict resolved but now it shows xamarin ios version mismatch error. How can I solve this? I am trying to solve these for some days. Any help is appreciated.

How to create a Xamarin.Forms Windows phone 8.1 project?

I cannot find a Visual Studio 2017 project for making Xamarin.Forms Windows 8.1 apps. How do I install it?
Windows 8.1 Silverlight and RT are all deprecated. I would suggest doing a UWP app and targeting Windows 10 instead.
However, if you do want to do a Windows 8.1 project. Make sure you download the Windows 8.1 SDK, then create a new Xamarin.Forms project. Then you will have to add a new Windows 8.1 project afterwards, and manually add the Xamarin.Forms Init code, in the project.
You can have a look at XArch for an example.
But once again, I strongly recommend against, creating a Windows 8.1 project, and you should do UWP instead.

VS Community 2015 - No Windows Phone Emulator Installed

I get the following error when trying to build (Debug > Windows Phone > Device) the default Cordova TypeScript project :
No Windows Phone 8 emulators installed. Please install Visual Studio 2013 with Windows Phone 8 tools selected to install the emulators
Note: I was using the release candiate of Visual Studio 2015 and just installed the trial version of Visual Studio Community 2015.
Installing Visual Studio 2013 Windows Phone 8 tools can't be the correct solution.
I've downloaded and installed wpsdkv80_enu1.iso from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35471. It is Windows Phone SDK 8.0 and Emulator and it's working fine with Visual Studio 2015 Community
If you want to only test universal apps, you don't need to download WP SDK 8.0.
You can debug universal apps directly from VS by switching platform to Windows Phone(universal) and choose Windows 8.1 Emulator. But it expects Emulators for Windows Phone 8.1 to be installed.
If didn't installed Emulators for Windows Phone 8.1 you can do so in Program and Features -> Visual Studio 2015 -> Change.
Thanks for upgrading to the RTM VS 2015. Unfortunately, you do require VS2013 for Windows 8 emulators to be installed. They aren't available on VS 2015 or there is no stand-alone installer for the emulators. But you should be able to deploy your Windows 8 application on Windows 8.1 emulators, if that helps.
Correct me if I'm wrong:
The Windows Phone 8.1 emulators provided by VS2015 are only good
for testing Universal Windows apps (APPX) and nothing else.
Windows Phone 8.1
legacy apps (XAP) can only be emulated by installing the Windows Phone 8.1 Updated Emulators separately.
You won' find this piece of information anywhere on the MS reference sites.

Building to iOS from Cordova Tools using old version of iOS platform

When targeting iPhone 6 as my simulator the incorrect splash screen is loaded which is forcing the WebView to upscale.
I can navigate into the cordova project on OSX in the remote-builds folder which allows me to discover that the iOS platform version cordova is using is 3.6.3, where the latest is 3.7 which has the fixes for iOS8 and splash screens for iPhone 6.
I need to be able to tell the remote agent to use the new platform to build, not the old one. Is that even possible? Do I need to wait for a new version of the remote agent / cordova tools for VS?
Steps to manually update the Cordova version in Visual Studio is documented here. Refer the section "To update vs-mda-remote on your Mac to a different version of Cordova". Please note that Visual Studio CPT3.0 support Cordova CLI 4.0.0, you can find more info on CPT3.0 here

Android Emulator in Aptana Studio3

Can I run the Android SDK emulators for Android website testing in Aptana Studio 3?
Do I need to install the Eclipse plugin?
I have installed Android SDK, and use Aptana Studio 3, but I am not sure if they will work together.
Thanks in advance
Ant
I don't see a major conflict by installing both plugins into Eclipse.
Aptana Studio's 'younger brother', Titanium Studio, can run both, so no real reason why the studio wouldn't run both as well.
