Uno Platform 4.4 was introduced June 28. The builders of the platform stated they’ve activated WebAssembly-related options forward of official assist in Microsoft’s .NET 7 platform, enabling experimentation or use in manufacturing. The most important enhancements are in WebAssembly exceptions and threading assist.
Enabling WebAssembly exceptions in functions permits code to remain totally in WebAssembly for exception dealing with, thus boosting efficiency. Generated code is smaller, too. WebAssembly threading assist additionally has been added to Uno.UI and Uno Bootstraper, enabling creation of threads or duties and use of CoreDispatcher and Dispatcher to return to the principle thread. Net apps can carry out costly duties off the UI thread and keep away from freezing the UI.

- Fluid animation on .NET, Android, iOS, and Skia-based targets. Skia is a 2D graphics library.
- Improved default undertaking templates.
