Supported platforms

##Supported mobile platforms Both BlackBerry QNX platforms are supported:

• PlayBook running OS 2.0+
• any BB10 device (Z3/Z10/Z30/Q5/Q10/Passport) running OS 10.0+

The plugin requires separately installed and manually imported (via settings page) PlayBook NativeCore SDK in order to target it.

To automatically install and use new NDKs released by BlackBerry it's required to have extracted stripped down BBNDK_VS from releases page.

##Supported desktop platforms This plugin has been written in a way to work on extreme configurations. It works fine on:

• Visual Studio 2010 Professional or above
• Visual Studio 2012 Professional or above
• Visual Studio 2013 Professional or above
• Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition!
• Visual Studio 2015 Professional or above
• Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition!
• Visual Studio Express for Windows (with limited set of features - only edition, compilation and deployment)

The same time it runs on:

• Windows XP (x86)
• Windows 7 (x86/x64)
• Windows 8 (x86/x64)
• Windows 10 (x86/x64)

However, if you have an i3 or better processor and Windows 8 with Hyper-V installed (needed for example for Windows Phone 8 development), you might experience problems running BlackBerry simulators.

With this set, it should be fairly easy to perform regular development and setup night-shift build machine.

##Minimum requirements

Microsoft Visual Studio 2010
Windows XP with .NET Framework 4.0 installed

##Recommended configuration Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Windows 8.1 x64 with .NET Framework 4.5 installed
