My latest book: Learn .NET MAUI — An Essential Guide for C# Developers will be released March 31, 2023.

Given the existence and likely enhancements to the .NET MAUI Community Markup Toolkit for C#, and that many people will come to MAUI with little or no XAML (or will know XAML and hate it), I was tempted to show all of the code in C#.

But the truth is that most extant User Interface code is in XAML and anything you can do in C# you can do in XAML. So, at least for the first edition, the majority of the code is in XAML with one full view recreation in C#

Here is the Table of Contents:

1. Assembling your tools and creating your first app
2. What we will build: Forget Me Not
3. XAML and C#
4. MVVM And Controls
5. Advanced Controls
6. Layout
7. Understanding Navigation
8. Storing and retrieving data
9. Unit Tests
10. Consuming a REST API
11. Advanced Topics

I’m eager to hear your ideas about this decision.

Thanks.
