9.0.0-preview.1.9973

Installation

Install .NET 9 and the .NET MAUI workload to get started with this release.

Known issues

• Due to a late-breaking change in the debugger tooling within Visual Studio, XAML Hot Reload will not load with .NET 9 Preview 1 projects targetting iOS and Android and should result in a yellow error bar. It should not break the deployment or debugging of the app, and you can enable ignoring future errors from appearing from the bar. This should be addressed in a future release of Visual Studio.
• building net8.0-* target frameworks from .NET 9 does not work in preview 1.
