Pixel-Perfect. Multi-Platform. C# & Windows XAML. Today. #

What is the Uno Platform? #

The Uno Platform is a comprehensive solution for building cross-platform applications with a single codebase.

With support for Windows, Web/WebAssembly, iOS, macOS, Android, and Linux, it enables C# and WinUI XAML to run seamlessly on all target platforms. This platform offers complete control over every pixel, and comes pre-packaged with design systems for Fluent, Material, and Cupertino.

It implements a significant portion of the WinRT and WinUI APIs, such as Windows.UI.Xaml, ensuring native performance on all platforms. With the use of WinUI tooling from Windows in Visual Studio, including XAML Hot Reload and C# Edit and Continue, developers can build and validate their applications on multiple platforms, starting with Windows.
