In this era of multiple devices, the shift is on to platforms that can project front ends to multiple devices and environments. Xamarin began the move in that direction several years ago. Now other contenders such as Google Flutter are entering the fray. The Uno Platform is currently the option with the widest reach, allowing an app to target iOS, Android, Windows 10, and common browsers via WebAssembly. It’s markup is in XAML and code is in C#, providing a mature and flexible means of building modern, responsive apps for a broad spectrum of targets.
In this session, we’ll look at how to get started on the Uno Platform, offer tips about targeting the various devices and platforms, discuss expected evolution of Uno, and see some simple examples built in Uno and projected to Windows, Android, and the browser.
