In this episode, Jeffrey Palermo is speaking with David Ortinau. David is a Principal Program Manager for the .NET Client Apps team at Microsoft, whose team’s primary focus is on Xamarin forms and .NET MAUI. 

 

David has been a .NET developer since 2002 and is versed in a range of programming languages. After several successes with tech startups and running his own software company, he joined Microsoft to follow his passion for crafting tools that help developers create better app experiences. When he’s not at a computer or with his family, he’s running trails through the woods.

 

David takes listeners through the ins and outs of multi-platform app development using .NET MAUI in today’s episode. He shares what developers can look forward to come the November release and provides a full rundown of what it looks like to use .NET MAUI from wrapping the local environment and building to testing to packaging and deploying. Don’t miss out on learning about what makes .NET MAUI a powerful tool you should be on the lookout for!
