Part 1 – Getting Started

In this part, we will get you set up with the required software and examine the project we’re going to build. We’ll then go on to examine XAML – the markup language for .NET MAUI. Next, we’ll take a deep look at MVVM, the architecture for it and most .NET MAUI apps, and we’ll undertake an extensive review of the controls and structures used to build the user interface.

• Chapter 1, Assembling Your Tools and Creating Your First App
• Chapter 2, What We Will Build – Forget Me Not
• Chapter 3, XAML and Fluent C#
• Chapter 4, MVVM and Controls
