Visual Studio uses CPS to load SDK-style projects. In CPS, most things
are keyed-off so-called capabilities which replace other methods that
were used previously like project type GUIDs.
While capabilities can be defined in the IDE, they make most sense to be
directly expressed in the targets themselves where CPS will pick them up
automatically.
After discussing with @kzu, simply using
Androidcould be confusingwith native C++ Android project that export the same capability. By
combining
Managed + Mobile + Androidwe can make a clear distinctionthat we are dealing with a Xamarin.Android project.
