MAUI
.NET MAUI (Multi-platform App UI) is a cross-platform framework for building native mobile and desktop applications using C# and XAML. It allows developers to create a single codebase that can target Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows, leveraging the .NET ecosystem. It is the evolution of Xamarin.Forms, integrated directly into the .NET platform.
Developers should learn MAUI when they need to build cross-platform applications for mobile and desktop devices while maximizing code reuse and leveraging existing .NET skills. It is particularly useful for enterprise applications, internal tools, or projects where maintaining a single codebase across multiple platforms reduces development time and costs. MAUI is ideal for teams already familiar with C# and XAML who want to avoid learning separate native technologies for each platform.
