The platform project can make use of abstracted .NET MAUI pages and controls directly, showcasing its enhanced capabilities in this aspect.

To gain further insights, please consult my previous article outlining how to implement Blazor Hybrid in the WinUI 3 project.

When compared with the time of Xamarin.Forms, significant progress has been made in the implementation of this feature, such as the definition of a platform-independent extension method called ToPlatform().
