dotnet-maui

Overview

Use this skill for .NET MAUI development, mobile and desktop workload setup, build diagnostics, simulator or device troubleshooting, and cross-platform UI issues using dotnet/skills.

Workflow

1. Inspect target platforms, workloads, SDK version, platform manifests, resources, and CI build setup.
2. Reproduce issues on the relevant platform target before changing shared code.
3. Keep platform-specific changes isolated and document workload or tooling prerequisites.
4. Validate with the narrowest applicable dotnet build, deploy, or test command.

Guardrails

• Do not assume iOS, Android, macOS, or Windows workloads are installed.
• Preserve platform permissions, entitlements, manifests, and resource naming.
• Call out simulator, device, signing, and workload blockers clearly.

Expected Output

Return MAUI-focused changes or troubleshooting steps with platform evidence and validation.
