Out of curiosity why did you switch away from the nuget package?

7sharp9 commented 8 years ago

We actually never did use nuget for FSharp.Core. It was an idea I bounced around to get past full deploys for F# pcl in Mono and Windows which was why I build the initial FSahrp.Core nuget package.

Applying that to Android and iOS would mean testing would be transient against the nuget package rather than the self contained FSharp.Core that comes with both of those. Theres also the issue of the mac based destop and mobile profiles both use the same name due to nuget limitations so theres no way for nuget to differentiate. So for the xamarin packages its best to supply them in each version.
