Importing Xamarin Android project into Android Studio

Question

Is it possible to import my Xamarin Android project into Android Studio? If so, how can this be done? Thank you!

Answer 1

It is not possible to do this. The best you can do is import all of your Resources into an Android Studio solution. However you will need to change any layout resources from .axml to .xml.

Answer 2

While like others here have already stated it's not possible to directly import your Xamarin Android solution into Android Studio.

However, if you are just interested in working with Android studio's XML tooling. There is a nice Visual Studio Extension (so Windows only) call XamarIDEA (Github) which allows for easy conversion of your AXML files to XML. Additionally, it create a temp Android Studio project with all your XML files syncing changes between Visual Studio and Android Studio automatically.
