.NET MAUI 9: Introducing the HybridWebView Project Template

HybridWebView is one of the two prominent enhancements in .NET MAUI 9, the recently released major version of the cross-platform App UI framework.

An article that comprehensively outlines the significant features of this version has already been published and is accessible here.

Consult this article titled Exploring .NET MAUI 9 – HybridWebView to delve into the details of this new control.

Nonetheless, the components that constitute the HybridWebView project must be assembled manually, as there is no inherent template available akin to that of Blazor Hybrid. So, it is appropriate to include one in the .NET MAUI All-in-One Templates pack.

Glad to introduce a new project template using HybridWebView in the templates pack v6.1. This article will describe how to install and utilize this new project template.
