What is MAUI .NET?

.NET MAUI (Multi-platform App UI) is a cross-platform framework for building native mobile and desktop applications using C# and XAML.

Key Features of MAUI .NET

• Allows developers to create apps for Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows from a single codebase
• Uses XAML for UI declaration and C# for application logic
• Leverages the .NET 6 framework, allowing for sharing of code and libraries across platforms
• Includes a set of controls and APIs for building native-like experiences

Advantages of MAUI .NET

• Reduced development time and cost through code sharing and reuse
• Improved performance and native-like experiences on each platform
• Simplified maintenance and updates through a single codebase
• Access to a wide range of .NET libraries and frameworks

Comparison to Xamarin.Forms

• MAUI .NET is the successor to Xamarin.Forms, offering improved performance and new features
• MAUI .NET uses a new, more efficient architecture and rendering engine
• MAUI .NET provides better support for desktop platforms and macOS

Getting Started with MAUI .NET

• Install the .NET 6 SDK and Visual Studio 2022 or later
• Create a new .NET MAUI project in Visual Studio
• Start building your app using XAML and C#
• Leverage the .NET MAUI documentation and community resources for guidance and support
