What is Uno Platform?

Uno Platform is a UI Platform for building single-codebase applications for Windows, Web/WebAssembly, iOS, macOS, Android and Linux.

It allows C# and Windows XAML code to run on all target platforms, while allowing you control of every pixel. It comes with support for Fluent, Material and Cupertino design systems out of the box. Uno Platform implements a growing number of the UWP APIs, such as Windows.UI.Xaml, to enable UWP and WinUI applications to run on all platforms with native performance.

Use the UWP/WinUI tooling from Windows in Visual Studio, such as XAML Hot Reload and C# Edit and Continue, build your application as much as possible on Windows, then validate that your application runs on iOS, Android, macOS and WebAssembly.
