Toyota is using Uno Platform <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=Fe3t2AGoXXE" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=Fe3t2AGoXXE</a>

Not a user experience answer per se but there is <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;VincentH-Net&#x2F;CSharpForMarkup">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;VincentH-Net&#x2F;CSharpForMarkup</a> which allows to define UI declaratively in a style that is even closer to SwiftUI than &quot;Uno C# markup&quot;.

&gt; SwiftUI is mostly great, but Apple platforms only.Have you seen <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;skip.tools&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;skip.tools&#x2F;</a>?

I’d love to hear people’s experiences with this! SwiftUI is mostly great, but Apple platforms only.Is anyone here using this in production and if so does it deliver a good developer and user experience?

The YouTube video of the .NET Conf session is very compelling.

Has MAUI managed to actually succeed Xamarin? From what I remember from a few years ago they kind of botched the launch and it failed to even fully replace it.

It&#x27;s one of the main players in the non-Microsoft cross-platform UI toolkits focusing on .NET, alongside AvaloniaUI.The Xamarin successor is MAUI, which is the MS offer in the field.

You&#x27;re totally right.Uno sits on top of .NET for iOS&#x2F;Android, aka Xamarin &quot;Classic&quot;.Single Project&#x2F;Single Codebase with your choice of XAML or C# Markup, choice of Native or Skia-based rendering, works with VS&#x2F;Code&#x2F;Rider on Windows&#x2F;macOS&#x2F;Linux.

Yes. It can use either XAML or C# markup. I think it uses the same stuff as Xamarin did when you developed Xamarin Native where you were using C# bindings to the native UI SDKs. The developer experience is a lot better than Xamarin because now they have a single C# project that targets everything--Linux, Windows, Mac, web, Android, and iOS at least.

Uno here. We have the same goals: Single Codebase Cross-Platform, targeting Web, Mobile and Desktop (including Linux). Uno runs everywhere .NET runs.The approach is different where instead of creating an entirely new API, we aligned with WinUI&#x27;s api (and UWP previously), making it source-code compatible with WinUI so you can leverage the WinUI&#x27;s ecosytem (CommunityToolkit, 3rd party controls, ...).By aligning with WinUI, you also get access to all the trained LLMs that already know about UWP&#x2F;WinUI and therefore also work on Uno.

More of a competitor, they have different goals.Xamarin&#x2F;Maui try to allow people to build cross-platform apps in a single codebase. Uno tries to allow people who are familiar with and&#x2F;or prefer UWP to develop on other platforms than just windows.

For sure. It is still trending as #1 for #dotnetconf hashtag on twitter
