.NET MAUI Behaviors

.NET Multi-platform App UI (.NET MAUI) behaviors let you add functionality to user interface controls without having to subclass them. Instead, the functionality is implemented in a behavior class and attached to the control as if it was part of the control itself.

For further information on Behaviors please refer to the .NET MAUI documentation.
