I'm planning to transfer my xamarin.forms projects from my windows computer to my macOS computer. Will copying the files from C:/Users/Username/source/repos/[All Projects/Files] provides me enough data to run/code my projects in the new macOS computer or do I need to copy additional file beside this path?

This is my first time using mac operating system.

You're need to install all required environment including Xamarin for iOS, Xamarin for Android. If you are planning to continue using Visual Studio on Mac it won't be a problem for you to setup environment. Just try to open your solution in Visual Studio for Mac and it prepares everything for you.

While there are some 'ifs' for which this wouldn't work (most notably your project can reference any file on the disk and as such it won't work on any other device until you 'fix' those external files) for most projects it is enough to copy just the data that you have quoted.
