Microsoft.Maui.Graphics (which relies on Skia anyway but whatever)

GlyphTypeface without WPF
I'm not sure if this is out of scope for https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics, but that seems to be the designated successor to the platform-specific graphics libs.

ImageSharp leaving the .NET Foundation due to licensing change
Yea, they can keep using the old versions, but that locks them out of the new versions and breaks expectations, especially since they were a member of the .NET Foundation. So it's up to them to keep using a version that won't get fixes or new features or accept the new license.
This whole thing just points out how hard all of this is to get right. I understand both sides. But I do at least get the feeling that the ImageSharp team is a bit high strung.
https://github.com/dotnet/Microsoft.Maui.Graphics/issues/47
I think this is probably an intentional move to move away from Microsoft and the .NET Foundation in addition to trying to capitalize on people making a lot of money from the software package.
After having looked at the license, it seems reasonable enough to me aside from the technicalities others have brought up. The vvvv tool follows a similar license of, it's free unless you make money from it.

Roundup of .NET MAUI - Week of June 27, 2022
This set of SkiaSharp views can be added to any .NET MAUI application for drawing. This is similar to what you can do with the built-in GraphicsView and Microsoft.Maui.Graphics, but directly to SkiaSharp.

Minimalistic fluent api in C# to create complex reactive Avalonia applications
There's Microsoft.Maui.Graphics as well so that the renderer will not rely on native controls just like Avalonia and Flutter (but currently it's experimental). MAUI's flexible enough to enable that scenario, the bigger question is more on motivation from either MS or the community to make it happen.

ASP.NET Core updates in .NET 6 Release Candidate 2 - Native dependencies for Blazor WebAssembly!
This work is a pre-cursor to Blazor WebAssembly support coming in the Microsoft.MAUI.Graphics repo, giving us a single .Net API to draw on all platforms MAUI supports, along with Blazor.

Creating a new image from file path in .NET 5.0
In .NET 6, there will be Microsoft.Maui.Graphics (doesn't depend on Maui, despite its name).
- Does anyone know if MAUI will have its own graphic libraries or will we need to use Skia Sharp or use the new Xamarin drawing capabilities?
