I installed it using the method therealjohn outlined. However, the XS version is not as good as the Visual Studio one (Windows version). In XS, when you create a new PrismContentPage, it only adds the page and wires it up for you. On Windows, it creates the page, wires it up for you, and creates the associated ViewModel in the correct location with the correct base class. In some cases it might register your view and viewmodels with your DI container automatically.

Try manually downloading the .mpack file and add it. You can grab the file from here: http://addins.monodevelop.com/Project/Index/226

Once you have the .mpack downloaded, follow these steps to install it from Xamarin Studio.

  • Go to the Xamarin Studio -> Add-ins menu
  • Click the "Install from file..." button on the lower left.
  • Select the .mpack file you downloaded
  • Press "Open" to select it
