           .NET MAUI provides a single .NET experience across all platforms, including Windows, iOS, Android, and macOS. .NET MAUI abstracts over 60 platform-specific APIs into a single, cross-platform API that you can use in your .NET MAUI app. These APIs cover access to storage, networking, device-specific sensors, and more. If needed, you can also access additional platform-specific APIs using dependency injection to abstract the code for each platform.

-          If your team has strong web development skills, you may want to consider using React Native for Windows app development. The motto of React Native is "Learn once, write anywhere," which means that you can use your existing web development skills to build native Windows apps using React Native. [React Native for Desktop](https://microsoft.github.io/react-native-windows/) is an open-source project that enables you to build native Windows and macOS apps using React Native.

-With React Native for Windows, you write most or all of your app code in JavaScript - or TypeScript - and the framework produces a native UWP XAML application. If your app needs to call a platform API, you can usually do so through one of the many [community modules](https://reactnative.directory), or if a module does not yet exist, you can easily [write a native module to expose it](https://aka.ms/RNW-NativeModules).

+Here are some reasons to choose React Native for Desktop:
 
 - You want to share code across platforms as much as possible, or you have web properties that you want to share code with.
 - Improved developer productivity and inner loop, thanks to fast refresh.
 - Your app's fundamentals (performance, accessibility, internationalization) are as good as a native UWP app.
 - You have experience with and a preference for JavaScript or TypeScript
 - You would like to leverage JavaScript-only libraries on [npmjs.com](https://www.npmjs.com/), and many native libraries too.
-- Your app will use the native controls, visual appearance, animations and colors, and therefore will feel integrated into the design language used in Windows. In addition, React Native for Windows apps do not have to compromise on the set of APIs they can call, as the framework allows you to call platform APIs as well as write your own view managers and native modules.
