VS Code - .NET MAUI - Select Startup Project and Debug Target

In August 2023, Microsoft made an official announcement regarding the retirement of Visual Studio for Mac, scheduled to take place by August 31, 2024 (in another 6 months), as stated in a blog post here.

In the same blog post, Visual Studio Code along with the C# Dev Kit is projected as a viable alternative for cross-platform .NET development. For further information on the C# Dev Kit, refer to this article.

And for .NET MAUI too, there’s an officially supported extension hosted on VS Marketplace. To know more about this, take a look at this article. C# Dev Kit is a dependency for this .NET MAUI extension.

.NET MAUI – Nightly Builds

At first, .NET 6 and .NET 7 versions of .NET MAUI were released only via SDK Workloads whereas from .NET 8 onwards (Preview 4 to be precise), it is now distributed as a base workload and suite of NuGet packages on top of it.

This NuGet-based release process allows trying different versions of .NET MAUI which are released on top of a base workload on the same machine without the complexities of moving between different workload versions.

.NET MAUI – Item Templates – Made Easy on CLI and VS Code

Even though the All-in-One item templates have the same set of features in VS2022 and on the CLI. The CLI has its own limitations and here are the notable ones:

The namespace resolution is not on par with its VS counterpart
- On CLI – Defaults to the root namespace
- Whereas in VS to the exact folder where the item is created
A lot of (repeated) typing is required
- The underlying reason is CLI’s named parameters design

Last week introduced the .NET MAUI Generic Item Templates for CLI. Since switching between the IDE and the Terminal is always a constraint. So decided to implement the revolutionary generic templates within the IDE itself so the experience is quite delightful. The right tools and techniques result in improved productivity. Achieve more in less time.

Published as a VS extension, starting v4.9.0.0
