Xamarin templates missing in Visual Studio 2017 enterprise

I had Visual Studio 2017 community before and Xamarin templates were there. I installed Visual Studio 2017 enterprise and now I do not see Xamarin templates like:
BlankApp(Xamarin.form Portable) and BlankApp(Native shared)
I have repaired Visual Studio and also updates but still same. Please advise how to fix it if anyone got same issue.
There is some changes on VS 2017 15.6.4, click Mobile App(Xamarin.Forms), and click OK, A window will appear allowing you to choose a Share Project or a .NET Standard:
Here is about the Share Project, and here is about the .Net Standard.

Cordova aap can be developed on visual studio?

Can we develop cordova/phonegap app on Visual Studio version 2012? I am beginner, any kind of help will be highly appreciated.
You could develop a Cordova app using Visual Studio 2012 inside of a WebSite project (for example). However, it's not a great experience. Visual Studio 2015 includes official support for Apache Cordova (see more at http://taco.visualstudio.com). You may be able to use the free Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition.

Xamarin addin works only for Visual Studio 2015

I downloaded the Xamarin add-in to my Visual Studio 2013, and now my VS is trashed, because it appears to work ONLY with VS 2015. Isn't there a VS 2013 version?
I didn't actually complete the installation because I noticed that it keeps wanting to install VS 2015 Community Edition and add Xamarin to that rather than add it to my existing VS 2013 installation. I haven't found an answer yet searching the web, but if I find one, I'll post here.
