WP8.1 in Xamarin

I'm using Xamarin with Visual Studio. Whenever I create a new Blank Project (PCL), it adds 3 projects along with the Portable solution: Android, iOS, WinPhone 8.0.

Now what I want is WP8.1. I tried selecting it as a target, but the project isnt created. If I choose "Retarget to WP8.1", it converts to WP Silverlight 8.1.

Can anyone suggest a good cross platform tutorial for Xamarin? All I found are about about creating Android app using C#

Xamarin Forms did not support WP8.1 till April 29, 2015. So maybe the version you have installed is not the newest or they did not update the project template yet. Check it out here:

Tutorials for Xamarin Forms can be found on their webpage:

Edit: New Project does not automatically add WP8.1 project. You have to manually add it and configure it like this:
