Transitioning to .NET MAUI

on YouTube ↗52m

" summary

.NET MAUI is delayed past .NET 6 GA so production migrations wait, but migrations are often simple: create a new project, copy files except App.xaml, update three namespace/usings and many apps run. MAUI uses single project multi-targeting with centralized resources, requires VS2022 preview, Android 31 SDK and currently sits at preview 11. Many Xamarin.Forms controls are incomplete — e.g. carousel view missing features — so test previews, keep Xamarin.Forms on .NET 6 and plan incremental migration.
