CrossOver can get your Windows productivity applications and PC games up and running on your Mac quickly and easily. CrossOver runs the Windows software that you need on Mac at home, in the office, or at school without purchasing a Windows license, without rebooting your computer, and without having to use a virtual machine. Visual Studio subscriptions come with different set of benefits depending on the subscription type and level. You have the option to buy just the Visual Studio IDE or to also get a comprehensive set of subscriber benefits that include cloud services, software for.

While it is easier to create apps using Uno Platform on Windows, you can also create all but UWP/WinUI apps on your Mac.

Prerequisites

Xcode 10.0 or higher
An Apple ID
.NET Core SDK
- .NET Core 3.1 SDK (version 3.1.8 (SDK 3.1.402) or later)
- .NET Core 5.0 SDK (version 5.0 (SDK 5.0.100) or later)
GTK+3 for running the Skia/GTK projects

Installing the dotnet new templates

In order to create a new Uno Project, you'll need to install the dotnet new Uno Platform templates.
Once done, in Visual Studio for Mac, open the preference menu:
- On left side, open the Other then Preview Features menu
- Check the Show all .NET Core templates in the New Project dialog

Create a new project using the IDE

To create a new project:
- Click the New button on the welcome screen
- Select Cross Platform App (Uno Platform)
- If presented with a list of options, uncheck Skia/WPF
- Choose a name then click create
Once created, you should see your folder structure set up like this:
- If you have a warning symbol on your iOS project, make sure you have the minimum version of Xcode installed.
  To update, go to Visual Studio > Preferences > Projects > SDK Locations > Apple and select Xcode 12 or higher.Restart Visual Studio.
If you did not get presented a list of options to create the project, as of Visual Studio for Mac 8.8, the Uno Platform template contains WPF projects that prevent NuGet restore to work properly. To fix this:
- Select the MyProject.Skia.Wpf and MyProject.Skia.Wpf.Host
- Right click to remove them from the solution.
- At the top of the tree, on the solution node, right click and select Restore Nuget Packages
You can now run on iOS, Android, and macOS by setting your startup project and running.

Note: You will not be able to build the UWP and WPF projects on a Mac. All changes to this project must be made on Windows.

Create a new project using the command line

You can create a new Uno Platfom solution with the following terminal command:bash dotnet new unoapp -o MyProject --skia-wpf=false Once created, you can open it using the Visual Studio IDE.

Build and Run for WebAssembly

Building for WebAssembly takes a few more steps:

Set MyProject.Wasm to startup project
Build the project
In the terminal, navigate to your build output. This will typically be: MyProject.Wasm > bin > Debug > netstandard2.0 > dist > server.py Run the server.py program.
In your browser, open localhost:8000.
