Create a new app with `dotnet new maui -n NewApp` or a [sample app](https://github.com/dotnet/maui-samples/tree/main/10.0/Apps/DeveloperBalance#developer-balance) with `dotnet new maui -n NewApp -sc` that includes the [open-source Syncfusion Toolkit for .NET MAUI](https://www.syncfusion.com/net-maui-toolkit?utm_source=msftdotnet&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=mauipremium_sep25) with over 30 additional controls, the [.NET MAUI Community Toolkit](https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/Maui) with tons of helpers and views, and [MVVM Toolkit](https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/dotnet).

**Note:** If the `maui` template is not available, first install the .NET MAUI workload with `dotnet workload install maui`.

## Overview

.NET Multi-platform App UI (.NET MAUI) is the evolution of Xamarin.Forms that expand capabilities beyond mobile Android and iOS into desktop apps for Windows and macOS. With .NET MAUI, you can build apps that perform great on any device that runs Windows, macOS, Android, & iOS from a single codebase. Coupled with Visual Studio productivity tools and emulators, .NET and Visual Studio significantly speed up the development process for building apps that target the widest possible set of devices. Use a single development stack that supports the best-of-breed solutions for all modern workloads with a unified SDK, base class libraries, and a toolchain.
