Blazor Hybrid - Build Hybrid Mobile, Desktop, and Web apps with .NET MAUI - Gerald Versluis

Blazor Hybrid allows building cross-platform native apps for Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android using C# and .NET without JavaScript

.NET MAUI provides 40+ native UI controls that automatically translate to the appropriate native components for each platform

Applications can mix native .NET MAUI UI with Blazor web components in the same app through the Blazor WebView control

Hot reload functionality works for both C# and UI changes without stopping the debug session

Projects can share code and components between native mobile/desktop apps and web applications using Razor class libraries

Developers can leverage existing ASP.NET knowledge including dependency injection and SignalR for real-time features

The unified .NET runtime means no need to worry about platform-specific runtime differences

Blazor Hybrid apps are distributed through platform app stores and run offline, unlike browser-based Blazor apps

Visual Studio and VS Code both provide tooling support through the .NET MAUI extension

For iOS/macOS development, a Mac is required for building and deploying apps due to Apple’s requirements
