Abstract: Modern .NET is powerful, open-source and welcoming to all, accompanied by rich ecosystems. However, when developers start building real cross-platform apps with .NET by digging deeper or pushing the boundaries, some cracks begin to surface – Uno Platform can help, visually and with AI.
Uno Platform is the most flexible open-source platform for cross-platform .NET development, complete with enterprise-grade tools on any OS/IDE. Uno Platform brings in a true single project approach to .NET, empowering developers with a unified solution serving mobile, web, desktop, and embedded systems. The target platforms list includes Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and two much desired destinations - Linux and the web browser through WebAssembly, with Templates, Tooling and MVVM/MVUX design patterns baked in. Uno Platform also provides two rendering modes out of the box - Skia and Native, and all types of UI from Microsoft & the 3rd party ecosystems, is welcome. Modern WebViews are also welcoming of web UI/styles – you make your own technology stack. Paired with Uno Platform Studio, .NET developers can get a serious boost in productivity with the fastest C#/XAML dev loop, flexibility in technology stack and top-notch tooling to empower enterprise workflows.
Modern .NET developers demand visual tooling towards building cross-platform apps – Uno Platform’s AI & Design tools deliver. Hot Design is the next-generation runtime Visual Designer for cross-platform .NET apps - it transforms a running .NET app into a Designer on any target platform, making for a faster developer loop along with Hot Reload. Uno Platform Figma Plugin eases the friction in designer-developer handoff – pixel perfect C#/XAML is generated from Figma designs. Developers building with Uno Platform can now harness AI Agents and powerful MCP Severs to bring contextual expertise – AI that has eyes, hands and code understanding, to empower ultimate developer productivity on any IDE on any OS. Come see the future of cross-platform .NET developer experience!
