Install Veldrid.Maui.Controls

Install Veldrid Packages

current official veldrid packages have some bugs on maui, for temparery fix they, i push some packages to nuget.org, you can install they to your app project to override offical dll.

• Base on official/veldrid
  • Yang.Veldrid.Maui.Android change see: build_for_maui_android
  • Yang.Veldrid.Maui.Windows change see: build_for_maui_windows
• Base on ppy/veldrid change see: build_for_maui_ios
  • Yang.Veldrid.Maui.iOS, (also work on android and windows)

In order to replace official veldrid, you need to add these to .csproj (ExcludeAssets will delete officail dll):

<ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Veldrid.SPIRV" Version="1.0.15" ExcludeAssets="All"/>
    <PackageReference Include="Veldrid.Maui.SPIRV" Version="1.0.16.1" />

    <PackageReference Include="Veldrid" Version="4.9.0" ExcludeAssets="All"/>
    <PackageReference Include="Yang.Veldrid.Maui.iOS" Version="4.9.10-ga1b22d70a3" />
</ItemGroup>

Create view

• Add .UseVeldridView() to your app.

• create view

   var veldridView = new VeldridView();
   veldridView.Backend = GraphicsBackend.OpenGLES;
   veldridView.AutoReDraw = true;// will loop render
   layout.Add(veldridView);
  

• create drawable

see sample HelloTriangle, you need learn how to use veldrid, see https://veldrid.dev/

• set drawable to veldridView

Advice GraphicsBackend

• iOS - Metal (don't test)
• Windows - D3D11
• Android - OpenGLES

** Current veldrid don't have a nice memory manager for Vulkan backend, will waste many memeory, i don't advice you try it.
