 Introduction to .NET MAUI Multi Platform APP UI

.NET MAUI Multi Platform APP UI also called .NET MAUI. Currently we are able to create native app on mobile using single code in Xamarin forms, But we can able to create native android, IOS, macos window app using single code with the new feature called .NET MAUI.

.NET MAUI is the open source cross platform framework. It is an evolution of Xamarin.Forms which extended from mobile to desktop application. It is a next iteration of xamarin form, instead of there being xamarin form 6 we are getting .NET MAUI It will be integrated in .NET 6.

This app can be written in xaml and c#. There are many similarities between Xamarin forms and .NET MAUI

Advantage of .NET MAUI

  1. Single development project experience with .net CLI
  2. Slim renderers
  3. Modern patterns
  4. Complete support of hot reloads
  5. Unification of library

1. Single development project experience with .net CLI

.NET MAUI also provides support for .NET CLI tool-chain to build, develop, run, and publish .NET applications seamlessly.

2. Slim Renderer

As xamarin.Forms use custom renderers which is removed from .NET MAUI. .NET MAUI use the new slim renderer pattern. .NET MAUI is loosely coupled, there are no Xamarin.Forms dependencies.

3. Modern Pattern

Xamarin.Form Support MVVM( model-view-viewmodel) and .NET MAUI support MVU(Model-View-Update) and Blazor development patterns.
