As of our 5.30 release, VertiGIS Studio Mobile has been migrated from Xamarin Forms to .NET MAUI, on .NET 8. We've now completed work to support MAUI in our nuget package as well, so the time has come for any Xamarin Forms projects using our SDK to do their own migration. In this blog post I'll walk you through the process, using our VertiGIS Mobile Samples project as an example.

A new version of VertiGIS Mobile, based on Esri's new 200.x ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET, is now available as a beta.

With VertiGIS Inline 2.3 and later, users now have the ability to create their own custom bands that run right in Inline using the VertiGIS Inline SDK. These custom bands are made with React and TypeScript, giving authors total control over what the band can do. Today, we will run through the steps to build, deploy and use a custom band in an Inline view.

VertiGIS Studio Mobile 5.22 includes an exciting new capability for working with commands, operations, and events. This capability allows app authors to execute custom, configured actions in response to events raised in Mobile. To opt in to this behavior, app authors register an event listener (subscriber) for any given Mobile event. When this event is raised in Mobile, the corresponding configured command or operation is invoked.

Workflow 5.21 includes a new TypeScript form element API that you can use for building custom form elements using the VertiGIS Studio Workflow TypeScript SDK. The existing patterns and APIs you've been using for years to build custom form elements will continue to work, but we encourage you to try the new API when building new form elements.
