Hi @PaulAnderson02,

Since the steps for creating a .NET MAUI class library (and how to manage dependencies) is not yet emerged, this request can't be entertained for now.

Hi @PaulAnderson02,

The workaround would be to use a class library template configured as a .NET MAUI library.

If you're working with .NET CLI, then dotnet new classlib would create a new library project (or) if Visual Studio, create a new Class Library project.

Manual Steps:

In the C# project file, replace the <TargetFramework> element with the following:

<TargetFrameworks>net6.0-ios;net6.0-android;net6.0-maccatalyst;net6.0-windows</TargetFrameworks>

And then add the .NET MAUI element within the <PropertyGroup> block:

<UseMaui>true</UseMaui>
