Part 1: Exploring .NET MAUI

In the first part of this book, we will learn about .NET MAUI programming. We will start with the introduction of .NET MAUI and its ancestor Xamarin.Forms. After that, we will create a code base using the Visual Studio template for our application. We will build a password manager app called PassXYZ.Vault step by step in this book. During the development of this app, we will introduce user interface design using XAML, the MVVM pattern, data binding, the shell, dependency injection, and so on. By the end of Part 1, we will have a fully functional password manager application.
