Sample Api Response: https://serverdrivenui.azurewebsites.net/ServerDrivenUI?key=MyView

Getting started

  • Install the ServerDrivenUI.Maui package
Install-Package ServerDrivenUI.Maui -Version 8.0.31-pre
  • Add UseServerDrivenUI declaration to your MauiAppBuilder and configure it to connect to your API
public static class MauiProgram
{
	public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
	{
            var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
            builder
            .UseMauiApp<App>()
            .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
            {
                fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
                fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Semibold.ttf", "OpenSansSemibold");
            })
            .ConfigureServerDrivenUI(s =>
            {
                s.RegisterElementGetter((key, provider) => provider.GetService<IYourApiService>().YourApiMethod(key)); //Register which api will be used to get the UI

                s.AddServerElement("MyView"); // Register the visual elements that will follow server driven ui
            });

		return builder.Build();
	}
}
  • You can now use the ServerDrivenUI Elements, defining the key that will be used to get the UI from the API
  • You can also define a LoadingTemplate and an ErrorTemplate to be shown while the UI is being fetched from the API
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

IOS

We need to set the interpreter to allow the Xaml loader to work

  <PropertyGroup Condition="$(TargetFramework.Contains('-ios'))">
    <UseInterpreter>true</UseInterpreter>
    <MtouchInterpreter>-all</MtouchInterpreter>
  </PropertyGroup>

Know issues

MAUI 16809 - Label().LoadFromXaml does not work when using Label.FormattedText

We are currently doing a workaround to make FormattedText work with ServerDrivenUI
