Builds .NET UI apps across Blazor (Server, WASM, Hybrid, Auto), MAUI (XAML, MVVM, Shell, Native AOT), Uno Platform (MVUX, Extensions, Toolkit), WPF (.NET 8+, Fluent theme), WinUI 3 (Windows App SDK, MSIX, Mica/Acrylic, adaptive layout), and WinForms (high-DPI, dark mode) with JS interop, accessibility (SemanticProperties, ARIA), localization (.resx, RTL), platform bindings (Java.Interop, ObjCRuntime), and framework selection. Spans 20 topic areas. Do not use for backend API design or CI/CD pipelines.

Overview
.NET UI development across Blazor, MAUI, Uno Platform, WPF, WinUI 3, and WinForms. This skill covers framework selection, component architecture, XAML patterns, MVVM, platform-specific deployment, accessibility, and localization. Each framework area has a dedicated companion file with deep guidance.
