Creating a separate IDE just for MAUI might not be the best move. Visual Studio already supports MAUI, and building a new IDE would split resources and complicate things. Instead, Microsoft could improve Visual Studio's cross-platform support or add MAUI-specific features like XAML Hot Reload and emulator integration to VS Code. This way, developers get a better experience without needing a whole new tool. |

As mentioned in the title,
Nowadays,there are numerous
cross-platform frameworks, each
supported by dedicated IDEs like
Android Studio (for Android/Jetpack Compose), Fleet (JetBrains' new IDE),and IntelliJ. These tools seamlessly run on Linux, macOS, and Windows.In stark contrast, Visual Studio,
Microsoft's flagship IDE, remains
tightly bound to Windows, with only a feature-limited version available for macOS. While VS Code offers cross-platform compatibility, it falls
short for MAUI development due to the
lack of essential tools like XAML Hot
Reload and native emulator integration.
