Create Your First Custom Control in .NET MAUI – Step by Step!

Custom controls are one of the fastest ways to improve consistency and reuse across a MAUI app.

In this tutorial, Hector breaks down the building blocks of a first control and explains how bindable APIs and MVVM make the component clean to consume from multiple pages.

What you’ll learn

• How to design a first custom control in .NET MAUI
• Applying Bindable Properties for configurable, reusable behavior
• Structuring controls so they fit naturally into an MVVM codebase
• A practical component mindset you can apply to progress/status UI patterns

Why watch this

• Helps you move from page-level UI to reusable component architecture
• Clarifies a topic that often feels abstract in docs alone
• Gives implementation patterns you can reuse immediately
