This February, join David and Rachel as they discuss the latest advancements in the world of .NET MAUI during the monthly community standup about GitHub Copilot’s role in enhancing productivity.

The Community Standup is a live event hosted by the core framework team on the official .NET YouTube channel. It provides valuable insights and exciting announcements. For .NET MAUI, it usually happens on the first Thursday of each month.

Undoubtedly, AI is disrupting the status quo, and now GitHub Copilot is available free of charge. On the free tier, it offers 2,000 code completions and 50 chats per month. All that is required is a GitHub user account and a sign-up for free. Supported on a multitude of apps including VS Code. For further details, please refer to the article and FAQ.

Remember to join live on Thu, Feb 6 at 18:00 UTC. Click the link to access the timing in your local or preferred time zone. Note, that it’s an hour behind its usual schedule (Daylight Saving).

The community links for this month’s standup will be updated here.

Happy coding. Stay connected as we continue to learn and share the experiences from this exciting journey of being a .NET developer.

.NET Conf 2024 - Annual Virtual Developer Event - Release of .NET 9

November is set to be an exceptionally significant month for .NET developers globally, as a new version of .NET will be officially released during its annual event, .NET Conf. Similar to previous years, this year’s event will also be conducted virtually, allowing participation online. The highly anticipated .NET 9 is scheduled for release during this conference, which will take place over three days from Tue, Nov 12, 2024, to Thu, Nov 14, 2024. Please mark your calendars accordingly.

Quite like .NET 7, .NET 9 is also a short-term support (STS) release, which will be supported for 18 months till mid-May 2026. Even-numbered releases are LTS whereas odd-numbered are STS. More details on the release lifecycle are here. The support for .NET 6 (the previous LTS release) ends (more details here), with .NET 7 already out of support, and .NET 8, the current LTS release, has another 2 years of support till early Nov 2026.

Due to the underlying external dependencies, the support policy of .NET MAUI differs significantly from .NET, each major release will be supported only for 18 months. So, if you’re using .NET MAUI 8, support will cease by mid-May 2025 (in another 6 months). Hence, it’s necessary to plan for your app migration to .NET MAUI 9. An article has already been published detailing the comprehensive features of .NET MAUI 9.

.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.
