Creating an Uno Platform project is done using dotnet new by following these steps:

Building and debugging your app

Set Android as your startup project. Run. run-android-rider

Whether you're using a physical device or the emulator, the app will install but will not automatically open. You will have to manually open it.

You may encounter issues while developing your app. Please see Common Issues we have documented.

Now that you have built your first application, you can head to our tutorials on how to work on your Uno Platform app.
