My Last .NET MAUI Video - Is MAUI Ready for Production? 

How is the development with Avalonia going ? I am ready for mobile now and need to choose between .NET and Flutter. Would you reccommend Avalonia over Flutter for a .NET dev ? Thanks!

Thanks for the honesty

You should actually try flutter flow, it takes you 2 months probably to be really sufficient, and two weeks to wrap your head around, I think it can also be used for enterprise apps 🎉 yeah, bummer that it didn’t work out, interesting that Microsoft aren’t able to keep up with all the other frameworks, now they have rebranded Xamarin to Maui, what where most lacking in your opinion?

Sad to hear things about MAUI, like in the video(

Nice vid, interestingly I’ve viewed MAUI as more for the mobile side of things, just because it can build windows or Mac apps it seems counter-intuitive when most people building a windows app generally would have windows devs and vice versa for Mac - more for legacy sense I assume, but if I today wanted to build say a Mac app I would likely be looking at Swift, it’s like MAUI is a great way to bootstrap that per se, but once you have to truly integrate with the OS and have versioning associated to Apple release cycles and not MAUIs wouldn’t you by then (a) have enough justifiable interest in your product to make a dedicated app for that OS as well as (I assume) by then know what platforms your users are actively using to know where to invest that time? Also iirc Apple can natively run iOS apps so maybe their view is that you could just release for that for that Apple people out there?

Maui is definitely not production ready for real world applications that may get more complex than the samples from Microsoft. I’ve been using it since it’s GA Release back 2022 and I’ve been reporting since that day multiple issues. I still got hope but it’s hard to believe this should be used in real world projects at this stage of the framework. I hope it won’t be your last video about Maui

I have a doubt in .NET MAUI. I am creating a point-of-sale (POS) application in .NET MAUI for a Windows platform. I am using an entry field and a search bar in my application, and it needs to be in full-screen mode. I have converted the program into an executable (exe) file and ran it on a POS machine (Essae Machine). However, when I touch the entry field, the soft keyboard does not pop up. Interestingly, the soft keyboard works in Google Chrome and AnyDesk on the same POS machine. Can you help me understand why the soft keyboard is not popping up in my application?

Maybe uno plataform, can make video about ?

I've been holding off on starting Maui, but after this I think I am going to go with Avalonia or Flutter. Maui i still in Beta and its embarrasing.

I'm not an expert, but please do not let the new framework you create be based on XAML and native ui elements.
