Introduction to .NET MAUI 

Me too

100%

I completely agree with your opinion , but I think it might be hard because of chaotic drivers... as Torvalds said about the failure of desktop in linux

@@richasha670 GTK and Qt seem to have no problem with Linux support in addition to their Windows and Mac support.

@@fred.flintstone4099 True, maybe it would be possible in the future because MS is introducing themselves as the opensource friendly

Stoopid Linux should be used for server applications so cli interfaces are the best desktop hasn’t been good and probably won’t since it’s so fragmented they don’t have a direction which is also a strength in terms of freedom and choice

agree

We plan our platform support based on customer demand, and of course balanced against what we can budget for a particular release. Linux is under consideration, so any details you can provide about your need would be great. My email is david.ortinau@microsoft.com.

@@DavidOrtinau it came as a surprise that someone from Microsoft actually said Linux is under consideration.. its nice if it is, to truly compete with flutter but many do see there is very little value in linux support. mainly for linux is preferred in server workloads where asp.net core already works . Linux desktop power users prefer the command line (not much of UI).. linux desktops have browsers where MAUI/blazor can target... There are negligible percent of users who are takers for offline application use cases on linux desktops and for online there is the browser . linux desktops are heavily fragmented between distributions and supporting all of them would be too much effort for too little gain.. so why is MS even considering linux support?

@@prash71717 Microsoft needs only to support GTK and Qt or just GTK and just target Debian, Redhat and Suse. The Linux desktop is too fragmented was highly exaggerated.

I think with WSL and WSLg it would be feasible to test and develop these apps

@@mikemike8439 so you have 2 work machines? 🧐

I have to agree. Coming from web development, the amount of code needed to create simple things is a lot. I’ve on,y tried learning wpf and it just feels so dated

I hope so. Xamarin is painful.

Wondering the same thing

UCSD has one starting January 11th : extension.ucsd.edu/courses-and-programs/cross-platform-development-with-c

I don't think so. Even the documentation is under construction. So, maybe give it a few weeks and we should be good to go.

It's a new technology, learn it, and become a trainer yourself

Why so

o_0 it's a pity, i think you forgot to say "boop piboob boob!" same as girl, and most important please wait for the 3rd revision!

Perhaps try to upgrade your templates via the dotnet cli www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Maui.Templates/6.0.101-preview.10.2068

@@dotnet I got it working thank you

@@apollorealms Não disse que a pronúncia estava ruim. Disse que eu é que não conseguia acompanhar.

Actually only Flutter is good and cross platform, other is shit nor cross platform. But yeah, MAUI kinda sucks there's no even good default widgets...

@@_dyats The problem for me is not the multiplatform support, but instead the 'declarative vs imperative' UI. Win32, WinForms, WPF, UWP, WinUI and now MAUI: all imperative and very old school. The world (Google, Apple, Facebook) has moved away from imperative with new UI frameworks.

@@DiegoNovati1 I got you, I don't care about that I care mostly about possibilities of framework and will I glad to work with that and user glad to use it. With MAUI can't say this right now. Actually I don't like any mobile technology that's why I have to choose at least not worse. Ps which React is🤣

@@DiegoNovati1 and BTW I suppose in future MAUI will support MVU pattern and that I think what you want right?

@@_dyats The MVx architectures (MVVM, MVP, MVI, etc) can be used with imperative and declarative UIs. The problem is that MAUI is still using code and XML for something that React, SwiftUI, Flutter and Jetpack Compose are doing using functions/struts instead: the full UI is a composition of components implemented as simple functions/structs and each time you update a property of a struct/function then the system updates the UI. P.S.: React is a UI library for web applicatoins and React Native is the implementation of React for the mobile world (both created by Facebook/Meta Platforms); I love React and I don't like at all React Native. Who will invest in MAUI now that Flutter desktop and web are in beta (and Microsft is developing some of the Flutter Desktop for Windows) and Jetpack Compose is in alpha for Desktop and Web ? On a greenfield project web and mobile are first and then desktop later recycling the technologies used for the web (using Electron as Microsft does with Teams and Visual Studio Core) or Swift UI/Compose for iOS/macOS and Android/desktop/web.
