It has been nearly 3 months since we launched Uno Platform 5.0. Since then, .NET RTM’d and even shipped a servicing release. Naturally, we embedded all that goodness in our 5.1 release, as well as added number one feature you requested – Our Live Wizard for Rider and VS Code users.

The same time-saving utility is now available via our Live version to JetBrain’s Rider and VS Code users so you can get your projects set up quickly. We also added three new controls, and improved performance.

Visit our blog post to learn more about Uno Platform 5.1!

A few more detailed highlights on this release :

• Font Fallback support on Skia
• TimePicker support
• New MsBuild Uno.Sdk
• Support for ComboBox.IsTextSearchEnabled
• Support for StandardUICommand
• TexBlock support for IsTextTrimmed and IsTextTrimmedChanged
• Performance
  • Memory leaks improvements (NavigationView, RatingControl)
  • Animations performance improvements
  • Memory allocation and Boxing reductions in DependencyObject
  • StatusBar performance for Android
  • TexBlock rendering performance
• Various alignments in layout engine from WinUI

BREAKING CHANGES

• Uno.WinUI used to have NavigationView both in MUXC and WUXC namespaces. It's now removed from WUXC and kept only in MUXC namespace.

(cherry picked from commit ca19a4d5865f5c6f1dae53b5e3daeb39ab2863d3)

• Fuzzy matching is now disabled by default

(cherry picked from commit ed7855d303f7bd999488e84de886b217ce5b1ef5)

• Resources dictionaries are now required to be
  explicitly referenced by URI to be considered during resource
  resolution. This change is present to align the inclusion behavior with
  WinUI, which does not automatically place dictionaries as ambiently
  available. This change can be disabled by using FeatureConfiguration.ResourceDictionary.IncludeUnreferencedDictionaries.
• Application.OnWindowCreated does not exist in WinAppSDK
• DependencyObjectGenerator no longer generated an empty ApplyCompiledBindings method.
• EasingFunctionBase API is now aligned with WinUI
• Remove ResourcesService and ResourceHelper

• BaseFragment is not needed and is now removed.
• ViewHelper.GetScreenSize method on iOS/macOS is now internal.
• FrameworkElement constructors are now protected instead of public
• ViewHelper.MainScreenScale and ViewHelper.IsRetinaDisplay are removed in iOS and macOS

• ICoreWindowEvents is no longer public.
• FrameBufferHost and GtkHost constructors that takes args are now removed. args were already unused.

The 4th release of 2023 brings many updates to Uno Platform, including the much-requested MAUI Embedding, Lightweight Styling along with the new ShadowContainer control, Neumophic Styles, iOS Hot Restart, Wasm CSP Support and more.

Our team is aiming to make you as productive as possible developing with .NET. The community and clients asked for MAUI extensions to be developed to aid them in Xamarin.Forms migration, so we delivered. In addition we support the .NET OSS ecosystem and we regularly contribute to .NET, including the two PRs that are making MAUI embedding more effective (https://github.com/dotnet/maui/pull/16758, https://github.com/dotnet/maui/pull/16803), as well as the latest SkiaSharp 2.88.5 which includes .NET 8 compatibility and WebAssembly fixes.

See our blog post for more details!

First, .NET developers can now reuse MediaPlayerElement across all supported platforms – iOS, Android, Web, Mac and Linux, in addition to, of course, Windows itself.

Second, we’ve added support for WebView2 for iOS, Android and Mac Catalyst.

We're excited to announce our second release for 2023, which includes over 200 fixes and product improvements, as well as support for .NET 8 Preview 2.

As promised, we've been hard at work on the improvements you requested in our 2023 Roadmap survey. One of the top requests was to make the startup experience with Uno Platform as seamless as possible. In response, we've introduced a new startup experience designed to make setting up new projects with Uno Platform easier and more flexible than ever before. The Uno Platform Templates wizard will guide you through setting up your project, allowing you to choose as many or as few pieces of Uno Platform as you desire. So, starting a new Uno Platform project is easier than ever moving forward!

As with every release we also spent significant effort in improving performance across all supported platforms. In addition to multiple in-memory and runtime performance improvements we are introducing OpenGL acceleration for Uno Islands, which are typically used in WPF modernization scenarios, showing 12x improvement over software rendering. In addition, TextBlock rendering for all Skia backends, showing 5x improvements in common scenarios.

Here are some additional noteworthy improvements:

• ThemeShadow for iOS/Catalyst/Android
• Shadows on Skia targets
• Performance and memory improvements
  • Memory improvement in XAML SourceGenerator
  • Runtime performance and memory improvement in DependencyObject
  • Memory improvements in ItemsControl and ContentControl
• GTK+Linux fixes for Ubuntu 23.04+ and Arch distributions

As always, a big shoutout to everyone who worked closely with our core contributor team to make this release possible:

• Reliability fixes by @morning4coffe-dev
• Documentation updates by @morning4coffe-dev, @mrlacey
• Localization fixes by @igiona
• Build updates by @workgroupengineering
• VS Code updates by @kojo12228
• Skia Shadows support by @VitezslavImrysek
• Libinput fixes by @microhobby
• Wasm fix by @mmarinchenko

Head to our blog post for additional details on this release!

BREAKING CHANGES

• assets: The ms-appx:/// specifier for libraries introduced in Uno Platform 4.6 was incorrectly lower-casing the library name. This change now uses the original name used by the library, which is the AssemblyName property of the library hosting the assets.

Today we are announcing support for .NET 7. Our sixth release of 2022 is a huge step towards creating the most productive platform for building .NET-based applications which run everywhere.

For more about the highlights, such as core .NET 7 support, Library Assets, SVG Support, Android 13, the new WebAssembly Bootstrap 7.0 and ASP.NET Core Hosting Project, head to our blog post!

BREAKING CHANGES

• Changing Time of TimePickerFlyout from UI doesn't preserve existing days, seconds, and milliseconds. To get the legacy behavior back, set FeatureConfiguration.TimePickerFlyout.UseLegacyTimeSetting to true.

• On iOS, when running under the iOS Simulator, the MtouchExtraArgs property must include --registrar=static or the runtime will fail with the following message:

  Don't know how to marshal a return value of type 'System.IntPtr'.
  

  This validation can be disabled by setting the MSBuild property:

  <PropertyGroup>
     <UnoDisableValidateIOSStaticRegistrar>true</UnoDisableValidateIOSStaticRegistrar>
  </PropertyGroup>
  

  See https://github.com/unoplatform/uno/issues/9430 for more details.

• Native popups on Android were frequently causing problems with more complex controls like AutoSuggestBox and MenuBar. To aleviate these problems we are switching to use the unified managed popups everywhere instead. This may be breaking apps which depend on the native popups logic or layout.

• This update adjust the name of android drawables, in order to have full path disambiguation. This also means that actual resource names now will be separated by "_" in place of the folder hierarchy. This is generally not a problem is the files are read using ImageSource.

Uno Platform 4.4 is our 4th release in 2022, keeping us on a once-in-six-weeks rapid release schedule we aim for. The release packs numerous UI and performance improvements across all target platforms. First, on the UI side you’ll be able to produce beautiful fluid animations on .NET Android, .NET iOS and Skia-based targets, as well as increase high-fidelity renderings of all your texts on Skia-based targets. Second, on the performance side we are including support for the most recent WebAssembly advances available in .NET 7 – Wasm Threading and Exception Handling. Lastly, we also enabled new input scenarios via GamePad API support and improved the default project templates.
In total we have implemented and resolved over 90 new feature requests and issues.

View the full announcement in our blog post.

Some of Highlights:

• Skottie integration (MUX ProgressRing on all Skia targets and .NET 6 mobile targets) (@jeromelaban)
• Overhauled Skia TextBlock rendering with HarfBuzz (Support for wrapping, rich formatting, etc...) (@mikernet)
• dotnet new unoapp now uses .NET 6 and WinAppSDK (@jeromelaban)

Uno Platform 4.2 – .NET 6 Mobile RC1, Performance

As of last week’s release of .NET 6 Mobile RC1, Uno Platform is now following the updates to ensure that you have access to the latest features provided by the .NET runtime.

You can read the full post here.

As per Microsoft’s announcement, the .NET 6 Mobile APIs are now considered stable for iOS, Android, and Mac Catalyst. This enables applications and libraries to be developed without having to deal with any breaking changes in future .NET Mobile releases. As Uno Platform takes a dependency on dotnet runtime, this is important as we can stabilize our own support for iOS, Android and mac Catalyst targets.

Since our previous release about six weeks ago, we also made a batch of changes to fix the support for localization of iOS, macOS and Catalyst apps, based on the new behaviors of .NET 6. In total there were over 190 new features and fixes completed, around Geolocation, focus and keyboard management, Android/Skia/WebAssembly performance, and more. For those who like stats – that’s about 6 closed PRs per business day; we are definitely picking up velocity even more.

As always, to upgrade to the latest bits and use .NET 6 Uno Platform app templates, you’ll need to use uno-check.

You can find up-to-date information about uno-check in our docs.

To install Uno-check:

dotnet tool install -g uno.check

To update Uno-check if you had it installed already

dotnet tool update -g uno.check

You can then run it with:

uno-check --pre

Important note:
If you were already using Uno 4.1.x, had run uno-check and were using VS 17.2 preview 3 or earlier, upgrading to 17.2 Preview 4 or later will cause mobile workloads to become desynchronized. To fix your environment, you’ll need to run the following command:

dotnet workload install ios android maccatalyst macos --from-rollback-file https://aka.ms/dotnet/maui/rc.1.json --source https://aka.ms/dotnet6/nuget/index.json --source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

Uno Platform 4.1 Update for .NET 6 Mobile Preview 14 and VS 2022 17.2 Preview 2

The .NET team has been steadily releasing a set of updates to the .NET 6 Mobile previews. Last week's update was Preview 14, which came at just about the same time as Uno Platform 4.1 release. Following .NET 6 mobile Preview 14, we’re publishing the Uno Platform 4.1.9 service update.

This update includes a new set of binary breaking changes added in .NET 6 Mobile Preview 14, which requires the use of Visual Studio 17.2 Preview 2. If you update to Preview 2, you will need to be on Uno Platform 4.1.9 or later.

Using .NET 6 Mobile Preview 14 with Uno Platform projects

To use this new preview in Uno Platform projects, you’ll need a few steps:

• Install the latest uno-check preview

  dotnet tool install -g uno.check --version 1.2.0-dev.10
  

• Or update to the latest uno-check preview

  dotnet tool update -g uno.check --version 1.2.0-dev.10
  

• Then run the following:

  uno-check --pre 
  

• If you’re building on a mac, either directly or through VS for Windows, you’ll need to run uno-check on the mac as well.

• Make sure that your Visual Studio 2022 Uno Platform extensions are updated to 4.1.9 (it should be automatically updated)

• Update your nuget packages to Uno.UI.* 4.1.9 or create a new project from the templates.

Note that if you intend to build for iOS, Xcode 13.3 is required and that this version of requires macOS Monterey.

It has been just over 3 months since our 4.0 release, and we’ve used that time to focus on performance as well as bringing the latest .NET 6 and even .NET 7 innovation to Uno Platform. By simply updating your application to the newest bits you will notice a significant boost to your app performance.

This release packs over 200 new feature requests, bugs, and issues you raised. We welcomed a few great contributions from our community which is now over 210 contributors strong! Thanks for all you bring to Uno Platform.

For more information about the release, read our blog post.

Important note about .NET 6 Mobile support

The current support for .NET 6 Mobile Preview 13 requires VS 2022 17.2 Preview 1 or later, 17.0.x and 17.1.x are not supported, and naturally Uno Platform will face the same constraints. It’s also worth noting that with .NET 6 mobile Preview 14, Microsoft will introduce an additional (and likely final) set of binary breaking changes, and we’ll publish an update to Uno nuget package to align with those changes.

Once you have 17.2 Preview 1 or later installed, use uno-check --preview to setup your environment.

As we’re continuing the alignment with the WindowsAppSDK, we’ve made some binary and source breaking changes in the Uno.UI 4.0 NuGet packages.

Most of these changes are minor and are generally present to remove the use of uno-specific conditional code. You can find additional information on how to migrate to Uno 4.0 on our documentation site.

• Some classes are now static to match UWP.
• Some properties now no longer have setters to match UWP.
• ComboBox now inherits from Selector rather than ListViewBase, to match the UWP/WinUI inheritance hierarchy.
• CoreDispatcher.Main is no longer public.

Uno Platform's 3.11 release ships 160+ features and bug fixes and adds support for  .NET 6 RTM with all related improvements.  

As Microsoft had announced the delay for .NET 6 support for Android and iOS, we've re-introduced Xamarin-based templates for Visual Studio 2022. Additionally, the support for preview .NET 6 Android and iOS has now been moved to 17.1 Preview 1.

In Visual Studio 2022, you'll find now two templates:

• One named Multi-Platform App (UnoPlatform|xamarin), which uses the existing stable Xamarin "Classic". It is the same as found when using Visual Studio 2019.
• One named Multi-Platform App (UnoPlatform|net6), which uses the .NET 6 preview support for iOS, Android, macOS and Catalyst and requires Visual Studio 17.1 preview 1.

You can setup your environment with Uno.Check 1.0.2 for Windows, macOS and Linux, which you can install as follows:

dotnet tool install -g uno.check

Then run:

uno-check

Here's a summary of the features for this release:

• Support for VS 2022 and .NET 6 RTM
• Drag and drop preview element support on iOS and Android
• NumeralSystemTranslator for Arab Numeral System
• Native pointer captures for GTK
• FileSavePicker for Gtk
• Support for RadioMenuFlyoutItem
• Support for IncrementNumberRounder and SignificantDigitsNumberRounder
• Support of GetPeerRadioAsync

As always, many thanks to our contributors:

• @pjgpetecodes for a Raspberry Pi tutorial
• @thomasclaudiushuber, @xperiandri, for documentation updates
• @MohammadHadi2031 for the SignificantDigitsNumberRoundersuport
• @pkar70 for the support of GetPeerRadioAsync
• @Jadhielv for dotnet new templates updates
• @trungnt2910 for UIElement clipping updates
• @workgroupengineering for Hot Reload performance updates
