Building App for Windows CE 5.2 with Xamarin?

I have a Win-Forms Project in C#, written in VS2015 with separated GUI and Businesslogik. One Part of this Programm I must "convert" to the App, which schould run on the handheld with Windows CE 5.2.

What is the best way to do it? Is it possible to use Xamarin?

Windows CE supports .Net Compact Framework, which is not in active development anymore. According to a post in the Xamarin forums, Xamarin doesn't support Windows CE or Windows Mobile 6.5: Link to Xamarin forums discussion. If you have your BL layer separated, you could create a Compact Framework library re-using your source code. You'd still need a dedicated Compact Framework application for the devices. Support for these project types was removed from Visual Studio with Version 2010, so you need VS 2008 to develop for Windows CE.
