Thank you Microsoft

This started off as a rant on here but then I realized it was getting long and decided to throw it onto my blog. I've somewhat recently been forced (okay, persuaded) to do some iOS and Android development and it really put the state of developer tools into perspective for me. I was shielded in my little Microsoft bubble of really damn good developer tools and now that the bubble has burst and the red pill has been swallowed, I figured a thank you was in order: [Code Index] Thank You Microsoft [ ^ ] I was planning to make a transition into more and more mobile stuff but I can't...I've been spoiled with XAML and C#, even considering faults and all, and I just can't go back now. So I'm going to keep focusing more on server-based work, dev tooling and stuff that won't need native mobile apps. Anyone else here try to make an honest effort to go from the Microsoft ecosystem into Android/iOS development and fail miserably? Well not fail, but ended up hating it? ...
