Gerald Versluis on MAUI, Blazor Hybrid, Linux Support, and Agentic Development
Gerald Versluis joins Barry Luijbregts on Code, Cloud & AI for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with mental health and Hyrox, then digs into the reality of shipping cross-platform .NET MAUI — and how AI is changing how the MAUI team itself works.

- AI inside the MAUI team — Copilot for PR reviews, validating fixes, and interacting with running apps
- MAUI Labs and Linux — how agentic workflows are helping expand MAUI into new territory
- Guardrails for agents — custom instructions, skills, MCP servers, and self-verifying development patterns
- Careers and education — grounded takes on how AI changes developer productivity and what kids should study
