2 Comments on .NET MAUI 8 Supports Apple Xcode 16: How to Update

Following its annual release cadence, Apple formally announced its updated hardware and software during the Apple Event in early September.

iOS and iPadOS have been upgraded to v18, while macOS has been elevated to v15, codenamed Sequoia. Additionally, the dev tool Apple Xcode has been updated to v16.

Regardless of the development framework, apps submitted to the App Store must always target the most recent iOS SDK. Therefore, support for the latest version of Xcode is crucial.

.NET MAUI has announced its support for Apple Xcode 16 in the stable channel of .NET 8 SDK. More details here.

.NET MAUI All-in-One Templates Pack v5.6: NuGet CPM and Nightly Builds Support

.NET MAUI All-in-One Templates - Support for NuGet CPM and Nightly Builds

Firstly, .NET MAUI 9 Preview 5 has just been released. The changelog can be found here. Notably, a new Blazor Hybrid Web template has been introduced in this version.

In short, this new template abstracts the Razor components into a distinct Razor Class Library (RCL). Furthermore, it provides the ability to create Blazor Web projects within the same solution and refers to the shared RCL.

The concept of abstracting the Razor components is already facilitated by the Hybrid project templates within the All-in-One template pack.

Will review the modifications and cover them in a distinct article.

Enhancements in .NET MAUI All-in-One Project Templates

1 Comment on Enhancements in .NET MAUI All-in-One Project Templates

Abstracts the Shared components as a separate .NET MAUI Class Library

As we all know .NET MAUI is an evolution of Xamarin.Forms. The underlying architecture transitioned from Renderers to Handlers. The project structure is unified. But for the projects that are getting migrated and developers coming from Xamarin.Forms background would feel at home with the classic multi-project solution structure.

To effectively support this, the All-in-One project templates introduced an option to abstract the Shared components as a separate .NET MAUI Class Library.
