Technical requirements
To complete this project, you need to have Visual Studio installed on your Macintosh (Mac) or PC, as well as the .NET Mobile components. Refer to Chapter 1, Introduction to .NET MAUI, for more details on how to set up your environment. There are additional components that will be installed in this chapter, so you will need an internet connection to download and install .NET Upgrade Assistant. This chapter provides screenshots and instructions for Visual Studio on Windows.
This chapter will both be a classic File | New | Project chapter and use an existing app, guiding you step by step through the process of migrating an app from Xamarin.Forms to .NET MAUI. For the second app, you will need to download the source from this book’s GitHub repository.
You can find the full source for the code in this chapter at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/MAUI-Projects-3rd-Edition under the Chapter03
folder.
