I believe Xamarin is now free post the MS acquisition with various parts and pieces even becoming open source:

I was actually looking here: https://store.xamarin.com/

Apparently the free version has usage restrictions? I do consider free w/ Visual Studio Pro license not really free.

EDIT: The licensing pages are confusing but you're right, my mistake.

No, it's completely free with VS Community (which is also free). And you don't have to pay if your company has 5 or less people working on it. You also have to pay if you have 250+ computers/people employed or your revenue is 1m+/year.

Sounds pretty reasonable to me.
