Good stuff James, thanks for keeping us updated

You are awesome. Please continue with this content.

[TheCheSindai]

Brilliant, many thanks James. Quick question though, can VS Code do hot reload?

[WaningAndreas]

On MAC it runs fine. Thank you for your video

[alfredsmart]

Thanks James for your update.
Please can you do a video on how to use collection view, Item source and binding. I am writing in regard to .NET MAUI preview 10? Much thanks James

[RobsonSoares]

Hi James, great video! Thanks! How can we do overlap elements on the view without the legacy compatibility pack layouts (like AbsoluteLayout) in MAUI in the future?

[grantcchambers]

Thank you! For Mac, I was never able to get it to run. It would error out, not able to see xcode -> Mac Catalyst 15 SDK, even with a fresh install of xcode 13. 'maui-check' would run all green check marks but then say "errors detected" without showing any errors. No idea. Anybody else running into this with the latest previews that has a solution? I tried to find where to update the Linker settings but not sure where to do that - looks like editing this in preview has not been unlocked yet?

[davidhwasserman]

Great video, thanks James!, Looking at recent mobile development platforms, SwiftUI & Jetpack Compose, Flutter, do you know if Microsoft has any plans to make a declarative type style of coding similar to those for .NET MAUI?

How can run in web browser or how to integrate a .net core web application

[aoguzkoca]

Hello, Is there a method to run it on our own iphone, not on the simulator, with dotnet commands via terminal?

[neilbarrett]

Great work James. I am having an issuing when attempting to run, and not sure how to work around: error MSB4019: The imported project was not found. I can see it isn't there but not sure where to get it from. Presume something failed or wasn't right during install. can you help?

[kumargouraw]

Do we really need "Desktop development with C++" workload for Maui development?

[sajanpatel]

Followed everything. getting this error after attempting maui-check on windows:

Synchronizing configuration...Error: The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception.

[yervandmazlumyan]

Great video @James. Thank you so much. I have a quick question though. I tried following the Mac install. However, it wants Xcode 13 beta 5, but the GA is out already. Is there an updated version/documentation on how to get Maui for Mac or do I have to uninstall GA and install beta 5?

[Hurricane]

Hey James, do you know if you can spawn multiple windows on the desktop targets? If yes, it would be awesome if the navigation drawer had a parameter like newWindowIfPossible for its modal and regular push methods.

[obvinpro]

Nice video -
How did you get that color?

[DooM-mncc]

I would love to see you making an application with .net maui and teach us all other different parts

[cbradbaer]

Hi James, thanks for all your great content. Is there a path to build deployment to a tethered Mac from within VS2022 for Windows?

[egvijayanand]

You don't need to enter the project name, it's optional. .NET CLI commands are intelligent enough to pick the project file based on the current folder context

Hi Sir,

What a great content!.,
Anyway
Does Installing .net 6 preview in mac m1 will break .net 5 and .net core 3.1 runtime ?
( I Installed arm64 .net 6 preview previous version on my m1 and broke my .net 5 and .net core 3.1 ).


Thanks
