Thanks, very interesting and a useful introduction to multiple aspects.
I'm still a bit scared thinking to distribute mobile apps (bad memories of when i developed locally installed applications and the awful mantainance) but... i'll have to walk this way someday.
Love Sharp7

I following your website and really have cool stuff i hope one day you will feature some Java or kotlin plc drivers.

[@jaikumaran2607]

This is wonderful.
The PLC and and the mobile have to be in the same network to make this work?

S7net is more easy
but i can not turn around putting the connection in every page , can you help to make the connection once and make it global ?

[@RickMorais1988]

Very good.
Which version of visual studio are you using?
I have the enterprise 2017 version and I was trying to create a application like this to connect a micrologix to a cross platform application ( android and windows uwp). But I tried as shared project and the UWP application don't accept the wrapper project.

Shared project were used to get access to more api, because back in the days pcl api was very limited. But now you should use .netstandard 2.
