BottomSheet Behavior

[avukalov]

Hello Vladislav,

I tried your BottomSheet example, and it works great. Is it possible to achieve the same behavior as shown in the Material documentation? You can find example here. If it is possible, could you provide me with some guidance?

Thank you!

Hello Antonio, take a look at bottomSheetDialog.Behavior. In sample I use FitToContents. You can disable it to allow extending the BottomSheet.

Thank you Vladislav.

Is there any documentation available on how to use platform-specific code? For example, your ShowBottomSheet extension method contains:

new BottomSheetDialog(Platform.CurrentActivity?.Window?.DecorView.FindViewById(Android.Resource.Id.Content)?.Context

where BottomSheetDialog constructor takes an Android.Content.Context.

How can I determine how to access that context and similar things? I tried to find a parallel in the Java Google Android documentation, but I'm not sure how it is implemented in C#.

I'm very new to mobile development, and I don't know where to look.

Do I need to learn Android and iOS development before using MAUI if I want to build a fully-featured, well-designed mobile app?

There are a lot of native controls for Android and iOS, you won't learn all of them and their API. The benefit of cross-platform frameworks is that you don't need to know all details of each platform, at least at the beginning level.
I suggest you start looking at .NET MAUI docs.

.NET Android SDK is a port of Java Google Android, so methods and controls are the same as in Java Google Android documentation.
