Key benefits

  • Handle data effectively with expanded coverage on the MVVM model and data binding
  • Integrate platform-specific code using plugins and custom controls
  • Migrate from Xamarin.Forms to .NET MAUI for the latest hybrid app development capabilities

Description

An evolution of Xamarin.Forms, .NET MAUI is a cross-platform framework for creating native mobile and desktop apps with C# and XAML. Using .NET MAUI, you can develop apps that’ll run on Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows from a single shared codebase. In this revised edition of .NET MAUI Cross-Platform Application Development you will be introduced to .NET 8 and get up to speed with app development in no time. The book begins by showing you how to develop a cross-platform application using .NET MAUI, including guidance for migrating from Xamarin.Forms. You’ll gain all the knowledge needed to create a cross-platform application for Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows following an example project step by step. As you advance, you’ll integrate the latest frontend technology into your app using Blazor components, including the new Blazor Bindings feature. After this, you’ll learn how to test and deploy your apps. With new coverage on creating mock .NET MAUI components, you can develop unit tests for your application. You will additionally learn how to perform Razor component testing using bUnit. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to develop your own cross-platform applications using .NET MAUI.

Who is this book for?

This book is for mobile developers interested in cross-platform application development with working experience of the .NET Core framework, as well as junior engineers who’ve just begun their career in mobile app development. Native app developers (desktop) or Xamarin developers who want to migrate to .NET MAUI will also benefit from this book. Basic knowledge of modern object-oriented programming languages, such as C#, Java or Kotlin, is assumed.

What you will learn

  • Develop high-performance apps with logical user interfaces
  • Improve the maintainability of apps using the MVVM design pattern
  • Understand the progression from Xamarin.Forms and how to migrate to .NET
  • Delve into templated components and Razor class libraries for crafting Blazor UI elements
  • Publish your creations to major app stores with guidance on preparation and processes
  • Extend your testing repertoire with bUnit for Razor components for reliable unit testing

".NET MAUI: Cross-Platform Development Made Easy" is a guidebook that teaches developers how to create apps that work on multiple devices using .NET MAUI, a tool for building cross-platform applications. The book starts with the basics, like setting up the necessary software, and then moves on to more complex topics such as app design, handling data, and adding specific features for different platforms. Each of the twelve chapters builds on the previous ones, combining clear explanations with practical exercises to help readers understand how to build applications from start to finish.The book also covers how to test and launch the apps to make sure they run smoothly on various platforms like Android and iOS. It dives deep into technical areas like creating reusable components and designing efficient architecture, presented in a way that's manageable for both newcomers and experienced developers. This guide is particularly good for those who want to learn the latest techniques and improve their ability to develop high-quality apps efficiently.

I have started to learn C# outside of game development so I can learn more web based development. This book takes you into what .Net Maui is and some back history of how the language evolved. It has lots of topics it covers, like security best practices, CRUD operations and publishing.Being in web development, the book doesn’t take long to detail what you can do to build web applications with .Net Maui and Blazor.I haven’t finished the book yet but I can tell from what I read so far it’s informative and inspiring to read. Those looking for a book in app development should pick this up. You will need the basics of C# though. It’s an easy few hour video you can probably get on YouTube or Udemy. But all in all, it a recommend by me. It’s worth it.

I recently had the opportunity to review an early copy of ".NET MAUI Cross-Platform Application Development." This book is tailored for front-end developers and native app developers venturing into the world of cross-platform programming technology.For those with a background in C# or any similar object-oriented programming language, this guide offers an excellent starting point for delving into .NET MAUI. The book begins by covering the installation process and guides you through developing your first .NET app.The first part of the book provides an in-depth look at classic .NET MAUI app development using XAML UI, offering clear explanations and practical examples. As you progress, the second part introduces the innovative Blazor Hybrid app development, showcasing how it integrates with .NET MAUI.In the final section, the book delves into unit testing and deployment strategies, equipping you with the knowledge you need to ensure your applications are robust and ready for release.Overall, this book is a well-written and comprehensive guide suitable for developers of all experience levels. Whether you're new to .NET MAUI or looking to enhance your cross-platform development skills, I highly recommend this book for its clear instruction and practical insights.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access.

Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
