Use with Other Control Vendors?

[benhysell]

Can Maui.Markup be used with other control vendor's controls, i.e. Telerik, DevExpress, Syncfusion?

I started playing with Telerik and did not have a lot of luck, I hope I'm missing something simple.

var stackLayoutStopStartButtons = new StackLayout();
var dataGridHashedData = new RadDataGrid();
stackLayoutStopStartButtons.Add(dataGridHashedData);

The last line - Error CS1503 Argument 1: cannot convert from 'Telerik.UI.Xaml.Controls.Grid.RadDataGrid' to 'Microsoft.Maui.IView' V.RelayDatabase (net6.0-windows10.0.19041.0)

Thanks!

Short answer: Yes.

However, the bug you're getting has nothing to do with CommunityToolkit.Maui.Markup; there's no code referencing the CommunityToolkit.Maui.Markup library in your sample.

The problem is that Telerik's implementation of RadDataGrid didn't implement IView. I recommend reaching out to Telerik for assistance with their library.

Converting this Issue to a Discussion as it is not a bug in Maui.Markup.
