Are you sure you have installed it correctly? Check this link -> [Mobile development with .NET](http://www.dotnettricks.com/learn/xamarin/xamarin-dvelopment-with-vs-2017) – Curiosity Jul 28 '17 at 18:09

Yes am sure, everything was okay before updating Vs 2017 just like on the link. After updating, the Xamarin option does not exist anymore in the Tools>Options window – FrinnoCodes Jul 29 '17 at 13:23

Do you still have this issue? Did you try reinstalling Xamarin? – Curiosity Aug 03 '17 at 17:04

Yes, some templates no longer exist in VS2017, but others it's just organized a bit differently in how you get to the specific template you want.
Example: The Blank App and Blank XAML App templates no longer exist in VS2017. Instead, choose the "Cross Platform App (Xamarin.Forms or Native)" template. A wizard pops will appear allowing you to choose a native Xamarin app or a Xamarin Forms app, as well as choosing a Shared or PCL app, as well as selecting a XAML app.

Yes i know about those changes, but the real problem is the wizards. The don't show up and project creation fails – FrinnoCodes Jul 29 '17 at 13:03
