MAUI has felt like a barebones project for years. Forgive me if I don't believe this is the beginning of more robust support.

Microsoft acts when it feels competitive pressure. I think Google's Flutter has been validated so Microsoft feels the need to respond.

Dart is a wonderful language though. I'm not switching back to using .NET anytime soon.

I wish it was a real "systems" language as well, i.e. not single-threaded/javascript-mindset one. That's why I hope someday we will have a nice cross-platform framework for Swift.

I whish that too, but I'm not holding my breath since Google needs Dart-to-JavaScript compiler, which will continue limiting features Dart can implement. The only way this can change is, if they move to WASM and drop JavaScript target.
