Created on 9 Oct 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: xamarin/Xamarin.Forms

I created a brand new Xamarin.Form projects with Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition (the latest release 16.3.3).

Here is the step I did.

But the solution just contains 4 projects rather than what I expected is 5 projects.

Hey @pstricks-fans, thanks for the report.

I can indeed see this happening on my internal preview version as well (16.4p2). The project _is_ created however on your filesystem. There should be a .MobileAppService in the folder where you created the solution, can you confirm that?

You should be able to just add that to the solution manually for now.

@jfversluis : Thank you for responding. Confirmed. There is a folder in my solution for the Web Api.

I've forwarded the issue to the appropriate team. Hopefully it should be fixed soon :)

This was closed recently but i have just had the same exact issue. Any updates on a fix?

Unfortunately, no update yet. This is a templating/IDE issue rather than a Xamarin.Forms issue.

As mentioned earlier, the project is created, but it's not added to the solution. You can easily do that yourself. I understand it is not ideal, but shouldn't be too big an effort to work around.
