I’m excited to say that this work is now live, batteries and all, plus some more improvements since the last blog. To recap the state of cross-platform development in the.NET ecosystem, Xamarin is out of support as of May 1st! This is replaced by.NET MAUI (Multi-platform App UI), meaning developers need appropriate tools when they make the switch.
