Does someone has expirience with programming apps for android using Visual Studio and Xamarin?

I searched the web for tutorials on: "How to build .apk file using Xamarin", found nothing helpful. I wonder if someone has worked with Xamarin, or even still uses it. Thanks!

Sadly doesn't work. I won't give up though I'll get used to create .apk's and then maybe I'll be more expirienced to fix the problem.

Problem is that, I followed everything from Xamarin's Hello Android project, and it didn't work. I am investigating Android Studio now. But thanks for willing to help me :)
