Discover how to modify a .NET MAUI Shell app by applying data bindings in C#, creating custom bindable and attached properties, handling gesture controls, and making events visible. This hands-on lesson helps you build practical skills with MAUI fundamentals through an interactive playground.

We'll cover the following...

Making the Activated event visible
Applying data binding in C# code
Creating custom bindable properties
Creating custom attached properties
Applying gesture controls
Other changes we can apply

The interactive playground at the end of this lesson contains a .NET MAUI project that was set up with a Shell application that implements a flyout behavior. We can apply modifications to it and see how they would affect the structure of the compiled application. We'll do so by applying the following steps:

Making the Activated event visible.
Applying data binding in C# code.
Creating custom bindable properties.
Creating custom attached properties.
Applying gesture controls.
