About this skill

What it does. Explains the four .NET MAUI app states and six cross-platform Window events, with examples using CreateWindow, Window subclasses and ConfigureLifecycleEvents. Maps events to Android, iOS, Mac Catalyst and Windows callbacks, and shows how to save and restore transient state safely.

When to use it. For lifecycle subscriptions, background and resume behaviour, initialisation, cleanup or multi-window handling. It does not cover Shell navigation, dependency injection setup or platform APIs outside lifecycle code.
