For local server I get this error, after a while: 'IDX20803: Unable to obtain configuration from: 'https://localhost:44395/.well-known/openid-configuration'.' I ran the MAUI project in VS 2022 preview, but not as admin. |

Could the code for Android and iOS be published here or in some other branch? |
Make sure you started the
Only WinUI is suppported ATM (the project stops building as soon as I add an Android TFM due to the fact the tooling doesn't support diacritics in paths and I don't have an Apple dev' account to try implementing iOS support). |

Closing for now due to a lack of interest from the community. |

If only I'd see this branch last month. It's exactly what I'm looking for :( |

@JohnHunterACS unfortunately, the interest was too low to justify maintaining a MAUI integration. Not to mention that MAUI isn't exactly getting the reception such an ambitious should get (there isn't a single week without something like https://www.reddit.com/r/dotnet/comments/10g734a/mauis_potential_hindered_by_inadequate/), which makes investing on it a bit... risky. We know what Microsoft does when things don't go the way they wanted to... 😅 FWIW, I tried to contact someone from the MAUI team to see if they could be interested in seeing a universal OIDC client for MAUI but I got no reply... so 🤷🏻 That said, generic support for Windows was merged earlier today and the OpenIddict client is fully working on WPF and WinForms. I haven't tested yet on WinUI as there's no .NET generic host support yet, but it's on my radar. MAUI has a generic-host-like API, but it doesn't support Don't hesitate to add your voice to dotnet/maui#2244. |

@kevinchalet - would you mind if I "borrowed" your ditched code for a proof-of-concept I'm working on? I'm currently accessing an OpenIddict server throw a MAUI WebView, which I realize is deprecated, but none of the WebAuthenticator examples I saw worked properly. |

@JohnHunterACS I wouldn't recommend it: this prototype was built for an early version of the OpenIddict client (whose final version was released in December). I'm afraid it won't work without heavy modifications. |

@JohnHunterACS see #1657 for an example showing how to make the new generic Windows integration work on MAUI (WinUI-only, of course). |
This PR adds a prototype of a MAUI integration for the OpenIddict client (currently, WinUI-only).
