I've been trying to get intellisense working for quite some time now, and am unable to see anything outside of

?
What else am I missing? I feel like it shouldn't be this difficult.
I resolved this issue by doing a simple workaround and here is the solution.
Right-click the XAML file in the Solution Explorer and select
Solution 1: "Open With... > Source Code (Text) Editor".
and in another time this also worked for me:
Solution 2: "Open With... > Source Code (Text) Editor with Encoding"
This workaround gave me the desired XAML IntelliSense even without installing the extra "Enable XAML Language for Xamarin.Forms" extension and even with ReSharper installed but suspended.
Extensions > Tools > Enable XAML Language for Xamarin.Forms
Enable XAML Language for Xamarin.Forms
Enables the VS built-in XAML language service to provide editing and intellisense for Xamarin.Forms XAML files.

From @Jeff:
Seems I had to completely uninstall Resharper, not just disable it. Then reinstall the "Enable XAML Language for Xamarin Forms extension".
