Community Toolkit 5.1.0 brings LazyView back from the Xamarin toolkit era and adds keyboard helpers. Edin Kapić also catalogs the FileSaver and FolderPicker reliability fixes in the release.

What you’ll learn

  • LazyView — defer view creation with LoadViewAsync and HasLazyViewLoaded
  • Keyboard extensions — ShowKeyboardAsync, HideKeyboardAsync, and IsSoftKeyboardShowing
  • FileSaver fixes — truncation, non-seekable streams, Mac filenames, and clearer extension errors
  • FolderPicker on Android — removing a chooser that caused “no application can perform this operation”
