    <blockquote> <p>Has anyone else experienced this?</p> </blockquote> <p>No-one I've seen.</p> <blockquote> <p>I know both Xamarin and MvvmCross focus on Visual Studio integration and PC development</p> </blockquote> <p>This definitely isn't true for Xamarin - in fact (in my opinion) the reverse is true - I think they work 'Xamarin Studio on a Mac' first, with Visual Studio support second.</p> <p>For MvvmCross, I generally do work Visual Studio first - this is mainly because I need to use Windows project types (Wpf, WindowsPhone, WindowsStore), because I prefer to use PCLs, and because Resharper owns my coding soul.</p> <blockquote> <p>is MvvmCross stable enough to use on Xamarin Studio for a Mac?</p> </blockquote> <p>This is too subjective a question for me to answer. I can tell you lots of Mac-people do use it... and that no-one who has tried has then turned around to me and told me that MvvmCross wasn't stable enough.</p> <p>The situation with Xamarin PCL support is evolving - the current support seems to change a little with every release currently, and there is a big PCL release coming at some point very soon. This is scheduled for <em>any day now</em> - so I definitely cannot claim that the PCL situation is currently stable.</p> <p>NuGet2.5 support is also changing - see <a href="https://github.com/mrward/monodevelop-nuget-addin/issues/13">https://github.com/mrward/monodevelop-nuget-addin/issues/13</a> - I have no idea when this will be fully available or will know about PCLs on the Mac, but at least the effort has started.</p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> If you want to, then you can always work with Xamarin project types and with file linking instead of with PCL project types. Just because MvvmCross uses PCLs internally it doesn't mean you have to.</p> <blockquote> <p>Does anyone know what my error may be</p> </blockquote> <p>I've no idea what your error is there - that <code>NullReferenceException</code> isn't the most verbose error :( You might be able to get more trace from logcat? Other than that, Xamarin forums or support might be able to assist.</p> <blockquote> <p>what to try next?</p> </blockquote> <p>I've recorded today's N+1 purely on the Mac without Nuget.</p> <p>This is currently uploading to:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://slodge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/n22-from-basics-on-mac-n1-days-of.html">http://slodge.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/n22-from-basics-on-mac-n1-days-of.html</a></li> <li><a href="http://youtu.be/UC2r4mmj3UI">http://youtu.be/UC2r4mmj3UI</a></li> </ul> <p>This is a 'warts and all' live demo of me developing a first Android and iOS project using MvvmCross and PCLs on the Mac. Clearly you can see some issues with things like Xamarin Studio intellisense and with Android emulator debugging (note that these debugger/emulator issues are independent of MvvmCross and PCLs!)</p> <p>I believe this also shows that right now today on the Mac, Xamarin.iOS is much more mvvmcross/pcl friendly than xamarin.android - but that both are possible to use.</p> <p>Note that for this demo, I use the assemblies from the VS folder in <a href="https://github.com/slodge/mvvmCross-binaries/">https://github.com/slodge/mvvmCross-binaries/</a></p>
