Quick recap. What is .NET MAUI?
.NET Multi-platform App UI (.NET MAUI) is a cross-platform framework for creating native mobile and desktop apps with C# and XAML. It enables cross-platform development for Android, iOS, macOS, Windows and Tizen. It is designed to create the best app experience available, just as though it was a natively designed application.
Using .NET MAUI, you can develop apps that can run on Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows from a single shared code-base.
The joy of cross-platform development is that apps look and feel like they were built for each operating system without the need for additional code. .NET MAUI uses native UI via the premier app toolkits supplied by each platform and Microsoft’s fastest mobile platform to date paired with modern developer productivity.
And... What is Blazor?
Blazor is a web framework that allows developers to build interactive web applications using C# and .NET. It eliminates the need for JavaScript and allows for server-side rendering, making it a popular choice for web development.
With Blazor, developers can use their existing knowledge of C# and .NET to create responsive and interactive web applications.
