Study Notes
Mobile App Development Lifecycle
- Mobile app development lifecycle follows similar phases as web or desktop application development.
- The five phases are:
- Inception: Idea generation and refinement.
- Design: Defining user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design.
- Development: Building the app.
- Stabilization: Testing and debugging the app, often with limited beta phases for user feedback.
- Deployment: Delivering the app to users.
.NET MAUI: Cross-Platform Framework
- .NET MAUI is a cross-platform framework for building native mobile and desktop apps using C# and XAML.
- It supports Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows platforms.
- .NET MAUI provides a unified API for all platforms.
- It offers deep access to native platform functionalities while enabling a write-once, run-anywhere experience.
.NET MAUI Architecture
- .NET MAUI provides a single project system for developing UIs for mobile and desktop applications.
- App code mainly interacts with .NET MAUI API, which then accesses native platform APIs.
- Optionally, app code can directly interact with platform APIs for specific functionalities.
.NET MAUI Features
- Provides a set of controls for displaying data, initiating actions, indicating activity, and more.
- Includes an elaborate layout engine for designing pages.
- Supports different page types for rich navigation, including drawers.
- Enables data-binding for more elegant and maintainable development patterns.
- Offers customization of handlers for enhanced UI element presentation.
- Provides cross-platform APIs for accessing native device features (e.g., GPS, accelerometer, battery status, network state).
- Offers cross-platform graphics functionality, providing a drawing canvas for shapes, images, and graphical transforms.
- Features .NET hot reload, allowing modification of XAML and managed source code while the app is running without rebuilding.
Accessing Device Features with .NET MAUI
- Provides APIs for accessing device sensors (e.g., accelerometer, compass, gyroscope).
- Allows checking network connectivity status and detecting changes.
- Offers information about the device running the app.
- Enables cross-app text copying and pasting to the system clipboard.
- Provides file picking functionality.
- Securely stores data as key/value pairs.
- Utilizes built-in text-to-speech engines for reading text from the device.
- Supports browser-based authentication flows with callback to app-registered URLs.
.NET MAUI Single Project
- Provides a unified project system for targeting Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows platforms.
- Simplifies and streamlines cross-platform development.
- Offers features like:
- A single shared project for all platforms.
- Simplified debug target selection.
- Shared resource files.
- Single app manifest for configuration.
- Access to platform-specific APIs when needed.
- Single cross-platform app entry point.
