## Downloads

The preferred method for installing Xamarin.iOS and Mac is to use the Visual Studio installers ([Windows](https://docs.microsoft.com/xamarin/ios/get-started/installation/windows/?pivots=windows), [Mac](https://docs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/mac/installation?view=vsmac-2019)).
Install the .NET workloads for Apple platforms using the .NET CLI:

The team also [strongly recommends](https://docs.microsoft.com/xamarin/ios/troubleshooting/questions/old-version-xcode) using the latest Xamarin SDK and Xcode whenever possible.
```sh
dotnet workload install ios macos tvos maccatalyst
```

However, we provide links to older Xamarin.iOS and Mac packages for macOS downgrades and build machine configuration, see [Downloads](DOWNLOADS.md).
For more information, see the [.NET workload documentation][workload-docs].

For legacy Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Mac downloads (discontinued), see [Downloads](DOWNLOADS.md).
