Architecture

• MauiProgram.cs
  • Configures Prism using UsePrism(new DryIocContainerExtension(), ...)
  • Registers navigation: MainPage + MainViewModel
  • Sets startup navigation: prism.CreateWindow("MainPage")
• App.xaml / App.xaml.cs
  • Standard MAUI Application
  • App resources and merged dictionaries
• MainPage.xaml
  • Uses compiled bindings (x:DataType="viewModels:MainViewModel")

From project root (MauiWithPrism):

# Restore Android target
dotnet restore -p:TargetFramework=net10.0-android

# Android build
dotnet build MauiWithPrism.csproj -c Release -f net10.0-android -p:RuntimeIdentifier=android-x64

# iOS simulator build
dotnet build MauiWithPrism.csproj -c Release -f net10.0-ios -p:RuntimeIdentifier=iossimulator-arm64

CI

GitHub Actions workflow: .github/workflows/build.yml

• Runner: macos-26
