Hello. Been a PowerBuilder programmer since the 90's. We have an inventory management app that's been running on Windows. Customers love it but the need to go mobile is arising. The most common ask is can it run on an Android device. I know there's no current way to use PowerBuilder to create mobile apps so I've been looking at using Xamarin. Does anybody have some tutorials or sample code that I can look at to get an idea? Any suggestions or help on this will be greatly appreciated.

Regarding learning Xamarin, which is not an Appeon product, I think you are going to get better response on Microsoft community sites. 

One thing you might want to consider is coding your business and data access logic in C# REST APIs using the .NET DataStore.  That way at least the server-side programming is PowerBuilder-like and productive. smile

There are some basic tutorials about .NET DataStore in the doc set: https://docs.appeon.com/

There is a good blueprint sample app to study on GitHub: https://github.com/Appeon/.NET-DataStore-Rest-Example

And there was a whole track at Elevate 2020 about .NET DataStore (the "C# track"): https://www.appeon.com/conference/elevate-2020/session-catalog.html 

Best of luck with your project!
