Aspire is now the talk of the town. You can build and orchestrate all the dependencies from one single place. In fact, it’s stack streamlined. Learn more about Aspire here.
This article discusses how to integrate .NET MAUI, Microsoft’s cross-platform UI framework, with Aspire.
Aspire supports .NET by default, but since .NET MAUI is designed for multi-targeting from a single project, it presents a minor issue. I’ll offer a workaround until it’s officially supported (coming soon).
For this, I’m using .NET 10 File-based Apps for simplicity. Aspire v9.5 supports this new feature. Consult this article to know more about C# File-apps.

.NET MAUI Community Toolkit v10.0 - How to Fix Behaviors BindingContext Issues
Yesterday marked the official release of the highly anticipated .NET MAUI Toolkit (CommunityToolkit.Maui) package v10.0, introducing native support for .NET 9.
Though it is the extended arm of .NET MAUI app development, for newcomers, this officially supported toolkit offers a comprehensive collection of essential components—such as Alerts, Behaviors, Converters, Extensions, Layouts, and Views—that are crucial for developing real-world apps.
This new release has some breaking changes, with the most notable being aligning with the design change introduced in .NET MAUI 9, where Behaviors no longer automatically inherit the BindingContext of their parent (a major shift from the original Xamarin.Forms design).
As the name suggests, has a slew of features under the hood to work with .NET MAUI.
To effectively support the stable release of .NET MAUI 9, both the CLI NuGet package and the Visual Studio extension of the All-in-One .NET MAUI Templates Pack have been fully updated.
