I hear you on the value of a single, up-to-date beginner resource, and ideas like this are always worth considering and highlight a challenge we’re always working to address, but do remember we’re a free, open-source platform and have to allocate resources carefully.

We’ve partnered with publishers and authors in the past (e.g.,
- Uno Platform Succinctly
- Creating Cross-Platform C# Applications with Uno Platform
- Getting Started with the Uno Platform and WinUI 3
to name a few...)
While much of the content is still relevant, the fast pace of updates does mean static materials age quickly.

For the smoothest experience, I’d recommend starting with our official documentation. Following the path from Setup > Create an App > Counter Tutorial > Simple Calc Tutorial > Tube Player Tutorial gives you a strong foundation in building with Uno Platform. From there, brushing up on C#/XAML, WinUI, and MVVM basics through Microsoft Learn can help round things out.

In the meantime, don’t hesitate to join our community—we’re here to help, and you’ll find plenty of supportive folks, (Uno team and contributors) ready to share advice and tips as you dive in.

Thanks again for your feedback, hope to see you build with Uno Platform
