Uno Platform updates to 5.0
November is the time for .NET updates, with .NET 8 peeking around the corner. It’s not the only part of the .NET ecosystem that gets an update; many third-party tools, frameworks, and platforms roll out their own updates to be ready for the new release. As this year’s .NET is an even-numbered long-term support release, getting tools ready for the transition is even more important, as many enterprises will standardize on this version for the next three years or so.
One important arrival is a new version of the cross-platform Uno user experience platform, which helps build one code base that can target Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Linux, and, thanks to Web Assembly, the web. The new release, Uno 5.0, is a big update, with a focus on developer productivity and an alternative to the dominant Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) user experience design pattern.
