Let’s move to the coding part<\/strong> !!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Setting up the UI <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 – Create a MainPage.xaml<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\" ?>\n<ContentPage\n x:Class=\"MAUIDeviceAndAppInfoSample.MainPage\"\n xmlns=\"http:\/\/schemas.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/2021\/maui\"\n xmlns:x=\"http:\/\/schemas.microsoft.com\/winfx\/2009\/xaml\"\n BackgroundColor=\"Black\">\n\n <ScrollView>\n <VerticalStackLayout\n Padding=\"20\"\n BackgroundColor=\"White\"\n Spacing=\"10\">\n\n <Label\n FontAttributes=\"Bold\"\n FontSize=\"22\"\n Text=\"Device Informtaion\" \/>\n\n <Label x:Name=\"LblDeviceInfo\" FontSize=\"18\" \/>\n\n <Label\n FontAttributes=\"Bold\"\n FontSize=\"22\"\n Text=\"App Informtaion\" \/>\n\n <Label x:Name=\"LblAppInfo\" FontSize=\"18\" \/>\n\n <\/VerticalStackLayout>\n <\/ScrollView>\n\n<\/ContentPage><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
2 – MainPage.xaml.cs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
using System.Text;\n\nnamespace MAUIDeviceAndAppInfoSample;\n\npublic partial class MainPage : ContentPage\n{\n public MainPage()\n {\n InitializeComponent();\n LblDeviceInfo.Text = GetDeviceInfo();\n LblAppInfo.Text = GetAppInfo();\n }\n\n private string GetDeviceInfo()\n {\n return new StringBuilder()\n .AppendLine($\"Model : {DeviceInfo.Current.Model}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Manufacturer : {DeviceInfo.Current.Manufacturer}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Name : {DeviceInfo.Name}\")\n .AppendLine($\"OS Version : {DeviceInfo.VersionString}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Refresh Rate : {DeviceInfo.Current}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Idiom : {DeviceInfo.Current.Idiom}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Platform : {DeviceInfo.Current.Platform}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Device Type : {DeviceInfo.Current.DeviceType}\").ToString();\n }\n\n private string GetAppInfo()\n {\n return new StringBuilder()\n .AppendLine($\"Name : {AppInfo.Current.Name}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Package : {AppInfo.Current.PackageName}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Version : {AppInfo.Current.VersionString}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Build : {AppInfo.Current.BuildString}\")\n .AppendLine($\"LayoutDirection : {AppInfo.RequestedLayoutDirection}\")\n .AppendLine($\"Theme : {AppInfo.RequestedTheme}\").ToString();\n }\n}<\/pre>\n\n\n\nThat\u2019s all for now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
