First we will talk a look at how to acquire the tools for Android and iOS development, then we will create a few C++ mobile apps using the built-in templates.
In this blog post, we will focus on how to build Android and iOS apps with C++ in Visual Studio. Whether you’re targeting Universal Windows Platform (UWP), Android, or iOS, Visual Studio enables building cross-platform C++ mobile applications with full editing and debugging capabilities all in one single IDE. Why? Those who are building computationally intensive apps such as games and physics simulations choose C++ for its unparalleled performance, and the others choose C++ for its cross-platform nature and the ability to leverage existing C/C++ libraries in their mobile applications. When it comes to building mobile applications, many developers write most or a part of the apps in C++.
