Episode notes
Uno Is Truly Cross‑Platform
- Uno Platform targets truly cross-platform apps including WebAssembly, mobile, desktop, and embedded devices from a single codebase.
- The stack emphasizes unified APIs (WinRT style) and shared UI using XAML or C# markup for broad reach.
Upgrade To .NET 10 For Real Gains
- Adopt .NET 10 for significant performance gains and take advantage of Span<T> and struct optimizations in your code.
- Leverage the Uno codebase to inherit platform improvements and collaborate with upstream .NET teams when possible.
Prioritize The Inner Dev Loop
- Optimize your inner developer loop: prioritize fast edit→see changes cycles and hot reload capabilities for productivity.
- Use Uno Platform Studio features like Hot Design to make UI tweaks directly on a running app instead of lengthy rebuilds.
