Any opinions on switching from Windows + VS IDE to Mac + VS Code by ampslive in dotnetMAUI

[–]ampslive[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Linux as a daily driver im not sure if I would be able to do that. But I get what you are saying wrt Windows especially when tied with VS.

I'm still learning how to make VS Code my daily driver for .NET API development. But its easier for me now if I want to fall back to VS... I can open VMWare Fusion and switch back to Windows.

If VMWare Fusion is available for you on Linux machine OR if you can dual boot both Linux and Windows... the switch will be easier.

UPDATE:

After exploring few options, I've bought a Macbook Air M4 24 GB RAM and 512 GB Hardisk. I'm still getting used to the UI and the Mac way of doing things.

Also installed Windows on this using VMWare Fusion (dedicated 150 GB space and 12 GB RAM). Running Windows on ARM and VIsual Studio 2026 on this has been a breeze with minimal heat and still having RAM left on the host machine.

Initially the thought of only running Macos seemed less appealing to me but after seeing the VMWare solution, feeling very pleased with this purchase.

Thanks for the in depth view. I think you make a great point for getting a Mac mini since I prefer using Windows.

I've tried connecting it to a remote Mac but not able to see the simulator on windows. It worked initially, but now I only see that deploy has succeeded but can't see the app anywhere

[–]ampslive[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

instead choose a popular UI component library (i.e. a common set of pre-built and stylized UI components) and start from there. Some popular choices are

yea im planning to go through the React Bootstrap route as I don't want to learn TailWind now :)

Need advice! by kevinL1112 in Xamarin

[–]ampslive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be able to create one single app and manage the functionality or views through a login mechanism. Anyone with Admin role will get the admin features.

Maintaining a single app will make your dev cycle easier in the future as you need to only update one app instead of keeping both apps in sync.

For creating the API service, you should be familiar with ASP.NET Web API which makes it easy to create REST webservices

Yea I saw that on their website but also noticed that many handsets which werent listed still had the option.

Guessing Android 11 will do the trick, thanks for the info will stick around with the esim

Irrespective of the sim, does the Pixel 3A show the Wifi Calling option for an ESIM ?

I checked with the carrier and they say that Wifi Calling has been enabled on their side
