A selfie of Gerald sitting on an office chair in front of his desk. The monitor shows the Xamarin logo and Gerald is holding the book: migrating from Xamarin.Forms to .NET MAUI by Iris Classon.
Do you still need to migrate your Xamarin.Forms app to .NET MAUI? Then this book by @irisclasson.bsky.social might be something for you!
A thorough and complete guide with things you need to think of while going through the migration, get it in your local online bookstore!

VS Code setting for GitHub Copilot agent maximums requests. I set my value to 50.
GitHub Copilot setting for allowed commands that can run without confirmation. I have added “dotnet build” and “dotnet test”.
Hacks for @vscode.dev @github.com Copilot.
1. Set the maximum requests to a higher number so it will continue working longer without confirmation
2. Add dotnet build (and test) to the allow list for commands it can run without asking permission
This way it’ll work more autonomously!
Is there an MCP server for the Apple Developer portal yet so I never have to deal with it again?

Screenshot of a chat with GitHub Copilot where I ask it to spice up the design for a page. It's response is: wow, this definitely needs some love!
RUDE! I know I'm not the best designer, but this is uncalled for
@vscode.dev @github.com Copilot!

If you’re interested in .NET MAUI and love a good old fashioned book, maybe while going away for vacation? Then this is a great resource to check out!
I also added write support, and the option to clear metadata (like sensitive location data) to the preview 3 release of this library.
Go check it out!
Correct! The name Plugin.Maui.Exif kinda gives that away 😉 if that library works for you and on all those platforms, use that one!

EXIF data is the metadata that is in an image file.
Until now, there was no great way to read this info in a .NET MAUI app.
In this video we will see Plugin.Maui.Exif: a plugin to read EXIF data!
