.NET MAUI Project and Item Templates

This repository is to host the .NET MAUI Project Templates, Item Templates and Code Snippets.

Join me on Developer Thoughts, an exclusive blog for .NET MAUI and Blazor, for articles on working with these templates and much more.

We all know that .NET MAUI is an evolution of Xamarin.Forms.

Channel	NuGet	VS Marketplace
Stable

For VS2022 users:

To provide an integrated experience, a VS extension has been developed to host these templates.

The All-in-One .NET MAUI Templates Pack VS extension (v5.12.0.0 or higher) is now supported on both x64 and ARM64 installations of Visual Studio 2022. Happy coding!

Consequently, the minimum supported version of Visual Studio 2022 will be v17.6 or higher.

Extension is made available in the Visual Studio Marketplace and even more easier, can be installed from within Visual Studio itself (Extensions -> Manage Extensions / Alt + X + M).

This has Project Templates for:

• .NET MAUI App - An All-in-One .NET MAUI App Project Template - For more details, check out these articles
• .NET MAUI Class Library
• Shared Class Library (Xamarin.Forms and .NET MAUI)

And has Item Templates for:

• Generic Item
• Generic Item (C#)
• Content Page
• Content Page (C#)
• Content Page (Razor)
• Content Page with BlazorWebView
• Content Page with BlazorWebView (C#)
• Content Page with ViewModel
• Content Page (C#) with ViewModel
  • For both the Page with ViewModel templates, ensure only the real page name alone is provided as input like Settings as the Page and ViewModel will be suffixed to it like SettingsPage and SettingsViewModel. And Page will be generated in the Views folder and ViewModel will be generated in the ViewModels folder.
  • The ViewModels are generated with the base class titled BaseViewModel (implementation left to the user).
  • Recommended to add CommunityToolkit.Mvvm, an officially supported NuGet package, to make it easy to work with MVVM design pattern.
  • This MVVM - Made Easy Part 1 and Part 2 articles can help you to get started with this brand-new NuGet package.
• Content View
• Content View (C#)
• Content View (Razor)
• Resource Dictionary
• Resource Dictionary (XAML only)
• Shell Page
• Shell Page (C#)
• Custom View and Handler (Regular)
  • Handler definitions generated in the Platforms folder
• Custom View and Handler (Cond.)
  • Handler definitions generated in the same folder in conditional compilation format
• Custom View and Renderer (Regular)
  • Renderer definitions generated in the Platforms folder
• Custom View and Renderer (Cond.)
  • Renderer definitions generated in the same folder in conditional compilation format
• Comet Page (C#)
• Partial Class (C#)
  • Made available in the section titled Code
     
• For Cond. type template to work properly, ensure Conditional Compilation is enabled (mentioned in detail here)

Now VS2022 extension is loaded with 25+ C# and XAML Code Snippets.

XAML Snippets for new Layouts, Gestures, Color, Style.

C# Snippets for Properties such as Attached, Bindable, ViewModel and Comet (MVU design pattern).

Types such as record and record struct.

Snippets for Method definition, Event Handler definition (async version also).

.NET CLI Template

For making use of these templates cross-platform, have provided it as .NET CLI template package distributed via NuGet.

Install the template package from NuGet with the below command.

Stable:

dotnet new install VijayAnand.MauiTemplates

If you've already installed this package, then this can be updated to the latest version with the below command.

dotnet new update --check-only

Parameters:

Starting with v2.0.0 of the template package, to effectively support .NET MAUI on both .NET 6 and .NET 7, CLI project template defines a new parameter named framework:

And from v3.0.0 of the template package, CLI project template framework parameter adds .NET 8 as another option.

And from v4.0.0 of the template package, CLI project template defines a new parameter named language:

And from v4.4.0 of the template package, CLI project template defines a new parameter named central-pkg-mgmt:

And from v4.5.0 of the template package, CLI project template defines a new parameter named include-shared-toolkit:

And from v4.6.0 of the template package, CLI project template defines a new parameter named nightly:

And from v5.0.0 of the template package, CLI project template framework parameter adds .NET 9 as another option.

And from v5.5.0 of the template package, CLI project template defines a new parameter named maui-class-library:

And from v5.7.0 of the template package, Class Library project template support referencing the Maps package.

And from v5.11.0 of the template package, support for XML-based solution file (slnx) format.

And from v5.15.0 of the template package, support to add and configure the Syncfusion.Maui.Toolkit NuGet package.

• Syncfusion.Maui.Toolkit NuGet Package (Short notation: -isft):

  Introduced the option to add and configure the Syncfusion.Maui.Toolkit NuGet package.

  Note: This would be an explicit option

  -isft | --include-syncfusion-toolkit - Default value is false

  dotnet new mauiapp -o MyApp -isft
  

  dotnet new mauiclasslib -o MauiLib -isft
  

  dotnet new sharedclasslib -o SharedLib -isft
  

• SLNX Solution File Format (Short notation: -slnx):

  Introduces support for the new, simplified, and easily understandable XML-based solution file format.

  This would be an explicit option since the SLNX feature is currently in the preview stage and is only supported on VS2022.

  -slnx | --use-slnx - Default value is false

  dotnet new mauiapp -o MyApp -slnx
  

• MAUI Class Library (Short notation: -mcl):

  Option to abstract the Shared components as a separate .NET MAUI Class Library.

  This will create a solution structure that is akin to Xamarin.Forms (the only difference is that there won't be multiple head projects).

  -mcl | --maui-class-library - Default value is false

  dotnet new mauiapp -o MyApp -mcl
  

  This abstracts both MAUI components and Razor components in an Hybrid style App:

  dotnet new mauiapp -o HybridApp -dp Hybrid -mcl -rcl
  

• Nightly build: (Short notation: -ni):

  Option to reference Nightly build MAUI packages (from the CI feed) in all the supported templates.

  -ni | --nightly This is a Boolean parameter - Default value is false. Can also be used with the CPM option too.

  Update: When creating MAUI projects with Nightly build opted-in with template v5.6.0 or later, the CI package source configuration process is automated with a local NuGet.config file. So, no need for any manual steps. Only required when earlier templates version is used.

  Note: For this work, add the following URL as a NuGet package source (make use of the command) and more details here:

  .NET MAUI getting released as NuGet packages is supported only from .NET 8. So, this nightly build option won't work with .NET 7 and earlier.

  dotnet nuget add source -n maui-nightly https://aka.ms/maui-nightly/index.json

  Examples:

  dotnet new mauiapp -o MyApp -ni

  dotnet new mauiclasslib -o MauiLib -ni

  dotnet new sharedclasslib -o SharedLib -ni

• Central Package Management: (Short notation: -cpm):

  This is a Boolean parameter and its default value is false.

  Examples:

  dotnet new mauiapp -o MyApp -cpm

  dotnet new mauiclasslib -o MauiLib -cpm

  dotnet new sharedclasslib -o SharedLib -cpm

• Language: (Short notation: -lang):

  This can take C# / F# as its options (with C# being the default value, if not specified).

  Examples:

  dotnet new mauiapp -lang F#

  For creating a .NET MAUI App on .NET 7:

  dotnet new mauiapp -lang F# -f net7.0

• Framework: (Short notation: -f)

  This can take net6.0 / net7.0 / net8.0 / net9.0 as its options (with net8.0 being the default value, if not specified).

  Examples:

  dotnet new mauiapp -f net6.0

  dotnet new mauiapp -f net7.0

  For creating a .NET MAUI App on .NET 8:

  Below command can be simplified to dotnet new mauiapp as default value of framework parameter is net8.0

  dotnet new mauiapp -f net8.0

  For creating a .NET MAUI App on .NET 9:

  Explicit value for the framework parameter is required.

  dotnet new mauiapp -f net9.0

In .NET CLI, all of these Items Template require a mandatory parameter:

• Name: (Short notation: -n)

  The name of the Item/Page/View to create. For Pages/Views, don't need to suffix it with the name like .xaml, it will get added.

  If the name parameter is not specified, by default, the .NET CLI template engine will take the current folder name as the filename (current behaviour of the templating engine).

• Now with more options while creating the app or class library project, ability to include NuGet packages on the fly for CommunityToolkit.Maui, CommunityToolkit.Maui.Markup, CommunityToolkit.Mvvm or all.

Note: Parameter values are case-insensitive.

Both .NET MAUI App and Class Library templates take the below optional Boolean parameters to include the officially supported CommunityToolkit NuGet packages:

Specifying the parameter name, either in short or full notation, implies that it is defined.

• -it | --include-toolkit - Default is false
• -im | --include-markup - Default is false
• -imt | --include-mvvm-toolkit - Default is false

Other Parameters:

• -ist | --include-shared-toolkit - Default is false
• -cc | --conditional-compilation - Default is false

Conditional Compilation

And now conditional compilation can be configured so that platform source files can be defined anywhere in the project provided they follow a naming convention as mentioned below. This will allow maintaining related source files in the same place, especially MAUI Handlers.

• *.Standard.cs - Files targeting the BCL
• *.Android.cs - Files specific to Android
• *.iOS.cs - Files shared with both iOS and MacCatalyst
• *.MacCatalyst.cs - Files specific to MacCatalyst
• *.Tizen.cs - Files specific to Tizen
• *.Windows.cs - Files specific to Windows

For existing projects, add the below block of code in the project file (.csproj). This will modify the behavior of build process so due care must be taken if doing so.

<ItemGroup Condition="'$(TargetFramework)' != 'net8.0'">
    <Compile Remove="**\*.Standard.cs" />
    <None Include="**\*.Standard.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
</ItemGroup>

<ItemGroup Condition="$([MSBuild]::GetTargetPlatformIdentifier('$(TargetFramework)')) != 'ios' AND $([MSBuild]::GetTargetPlatformIdentifier('$(TargetFramework)')) != 'maccatalyst'">
    <Compile Remove="**\*.iOS.cs" />
    <None Include="**\*.iOS.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
    <Compile Remove="**\iOS\**\*.cs" />
    <None Include="**\iOS\**\*.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
</ItemGroup>

<ItemGroup Condition="$([MSBuild]::GetTargetPlatformIdentifier('$(TargetFramework)')) != 'android'">
    <Compile Remove="**\*.Android.cs" />
    <None Include="**\*.Android.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
    <Compile Remove="**\Android\**\*.cs" />
    <None Include="**\Android\**\*.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
</ItemGroup>

<ItemGroup Condition="$([MSBuild]::GetTargetPlatformIdentifier('$(TargetFramework)')) != 'maccatalyst'">
    <Compile Remove="**\*.MacCatalyst.cs" />
    <None Include="**\*.MacCatalyst.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
    <Compile Remove="**\MacCatalyst\**\*.cs" />
    <None Include="**\MacCatalyst\**\*.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
</ItemGroup>

<ItemGroup Condition="$([MSBuild]::GetTargetPlatformIdentifier('$(TargetFramework)')) != 'tizen'">
    <Compile Remove="**\*.Tizen.cs" />
    <None Include="**\*.Tizen.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
    <Compile Remove="**\Tizen\**\*.cs" />
    <None Include="**\Tizen\**\*.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
</ItemGroup>

<ItemGroup Condition="$([MSBuild]::GetTargetPlatformIdentifier('$(TargetFramework)')) != 'windows'">
    <Compile Remove="**\*.Windows.cs" />
    <None Include="**\*.Windows.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
    <Compile Remove="**\Windows\**\*.cs" />
    <None Include="**\Windows\**\*.cs" Exclude="$(DefaultItemExcludes);$(DefaultExcludesInProjectFolder)" />
</ItemGroup>

All-in-One .NET MAUI App Project Template:

This takes two additional parameters to define the application design pattern and target platform respectively. Not all options are supported in the F# template. For now, only Plain and Hybrid option is available.

• -dp | --design-pattern

Can take any one of the following values, with default value set to Plain:

Parameter Value	Description
Plain	App configured to work with a single, initial screen.
Hierarchical	App configured to work in a Hierarchical pattern using NavigationPage.
Tab	App configured to work in a Tabbed fashion using TabbedPage.
Shell	App configured to work with Routes using Shell page.
Hybrid	App configured to work in a Hybrid fashion using BlazorWebView.
Markup	App configured to work with C# Markup syntax.
Razor	App configured to work with Razor syntax.
Comet	App configured to work with MVU pattern using Comet.
Reactor	App configured to work with MVU pattern using Reactor.

• -tp | --target-platform

Can take a combination of the following values, with default value set to All:

Parameter Value	Description
All	Targets all possible .NET MAUI supported platforms.
Base	Base framework (.NET 6/7/8) based on the framework opted.
Android	Targets Android platform.
iOS	Targets iOS platform.
macOS	Targets macOS platform via Mac Catalyst.
Windows	Targets Windows platform.
Tizen	Targets Tizen platform.
Mobile	Targets Android and iOS platforms.
Desktop	Targets Windows and macOS platforms.
Apple	Targets iOS and macOS platforms.

Additional parameters supported:

MVVM is a delightful and development-friendly design pattern to work with. To support this, a new parameter has been introduced:

• -mvvm | --use-mvvm - Default is false
• -icb | --include-compiled-bindings - Default is false

Note: Opting for this MVVM option will not have any impact on the App created with Web-based Razor syntax or MVU based Comet/Reactor.

While creating an App (C#), an option to abstract the Shared components as a separate .NET MAUI Class Library.

• -mcl | --maui-class-library - Default is false

While creating a Blazor Hybrid App, an option to abstract the Razor components as a separate Razor Class Library.

• -rcl | --razor-class-library - Default is false

The target for the Windows platform can be either Package (MSIX) or Unpackaged. By default, it is set as Package, this can be overridden while creating the project by including the below parameter:

• -wu | --windows-unpackaged - Default is false

While targeting .NET 7 or later, an option to add and configure CommunityToolkit.Maui.MediaElement, Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Foldable, Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Maps, or all NuGet packages.

• -ime | --include-media-element - Default is false
• -if | --include-foldable - Default is false
• -inm | --include-maps - Default is false

With Windows as a target platform, opting for the Maps feature will also include CommunityToolkit.Maui.Maps NuGet package.

Note: If the project target .NET 6, selecting the MediaElement/Foldable/Maps option will NOT have any impact.

Examples (passing one or more values):

dotnet new mauiapp --design-pattern Hybrid --target-platform Mobile

dotnet new mauiapp -dp Shell -tp Android iOS Windows

.NET MAUI Class Library Template:

Similar to All-in-One .NET MAUI App, the Class Library project template also takes target-platform as a parameter that takes a combination from the same set of values (with All being the default value).

• Can be created targeting .NET Razor SDK
  • Parameter name: --use-razor-sdk | -urs
• Can be created targeting .NET MAUI Core
  • Parameter name: --use-maui-core | -umc
• Can be created targeting .NET MAUI Essentials

• -xf | --xamarin-forms

Supported values are:

• netstandard2.0 (Default, if not specified)
• netstandard2.1

Define the Target Framework of .NET MAUI library with the -f | --framework parameter.

This takes the below optional Boolean parameters to include the officially supported NuGet packages:

Specifying the parameter name, either in short or full notation, implies that it is defined.

Single parameter to include all the supported NuGet packages:

• -asp | --all-supported-packages - Default is false

dotnet new sharedclasslib --help

Partial Class Item Template:

This item template (short name: class-cs) allows to create a C# class from CLI with support for multiple options.

Parameter Name	Type	Default Value	Remarks
access-modifier	choice	public	Specifies the accessibility of the class type.
base	text	object	Specifies the base type for the class.
abstract	bool	false	Option to create the type as abstract.

dotnet new mauiclasslib -n MyApp.Core -cc

Shared Class Library:

dotnet new sharedclasslib -n MyApp.UI

Option to include all supported NuGet packages:

dotnet new sharedclasslib -n MyApp.UI -asp

Generic Item Template:

• A revolutionary generic template, in XAML and C#, for creating items of any type
• Supported both within the VS2022 IDE and CLI
• On CLI, it is named as maui-item and maui-item-cs
• The same set of parameters is defined in the UI as dropdown, textbox and checkbox for ease of use
• Both needs one required parameter, -b / --base, the base type
• And optionally takes another parameter, -g / --generic, to specify the generic base type
• In addition, the XAML template takes one more parameter, -xo / --xaml-only, to generate only the XAML definition
• Frequently used base types are loaded in the Editable dropdown, user can also enter their value here
• Ensure the values are entered in Pascal notation. XAML templates support XML namespace prefix, quite like how it is used in real world (mct:Popup)
• The one big advantage of using this on IDE is the relative namespace to the folder where the item is created whereas on CLI, this defaults to the root namespace. As relative namespace resolution is yet to be fully supported by the CLI templating engine and is actively tracked here

Note: Namespace resolution in both XAML and C# files is left to the user as deriving them with the template is outside its scope.

Tip: For the XAML template, pass the xmlns scope as part of the input parameter value and it'll be used appropriately in the generated source files.

Tip: Use local scope to refer to the files in the same directory like Views. For example, local:BasePage

CLI Commands:

dotnet new maui-item -n LoginPage -b ContentPage

dotnet new maui-item-cs -n ProductView -b ContentView
