Using Xamarin Embedded fonts and Font Image Source, What this plugging was trying to achieve can be achieved now.

If you are using Xamarin.Forms 4.5.0.530 below version, it still make sense to use this pluging.

SourceLink Support

In Visual Studio, confirm that SourceLink is enabled. Also, Turn off "Just My Code" since, well, this isn't your code.
