Add missing MAUI API docs
See original GitHub issueDescription
Plenty of MAUI’s API documentation is missing within VS IntelliSense, e. g. after typing
MauiApp.CreateBuilder().
none of the MauiAppBuilder
extensions, e. g. UseMauiApp<T>()
or even ConfigureFonts()
, provide any information besides their method signature due to missing XML docs within their source code:
https://github.com/dotnet/maui/blob/0ace122b75382a43ae8ff7dbbdf1cb4d55703cc8/src/Controls/src/Xaml/Hosting/AppHostBuilderExtensions.cs#L29-L33
https://github.com/dotnet/maui/blob/0ace122b75382a43ae8ff7dbbdf1cb4d55703cc8/src/Core/src/Hosting/Fonts/FontsMauiAppBuilderExtensions.cs#L16-L20
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a File > New .NET MAUI App
- Go to
CreateMauiApp()
insideMauiProgram.cs
. - At the line with
MauiApp.CreateBuilder()
, type a.
after the closing parenthesis.

Understood, and I agree that many API docs are still missing. My comment was that prior to GA there were essentially ZERO API docs visible in VS, and starting with GA (released this week) there are many thousands of API docs available. Unfortunately, the APIs you mentioned are still not available.
BTW in .NET MAUI 6 GA (that we released this week) you should see a TON more documentation for APIs. It’s certainly not complete, but prior to that, there were ZERO docs visible for the main MAUI APIs.
