Getting Started with the .NET MAUI Rating

This guide provides the information you need to start using the Telerik UI for .NET MAUI Rating by adding the control to your project.

At the end, you will achieve the following result.

Prerequisites

Before adding the Rating, you need to:

1. Set up your .NET MAUI application.

2. Download Telerik UI for .NET MAUI.

3. Install Telerik UI for .NET MAUI.

The Rating is rendered through the SkiaSharp graphics library.

Define the Control

<telerik:RadShapeRating AutomationId="radRating"/>

2. Add the following namespace:

xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2022/xaml/maui" 

3. Register the Telerik controls through the Telerik.Maui.Controls.Compatibility.UseTelerik extension method called inside the CreateMauiApp method of the MauiProgram.cs file of your project:

using Telerik.Maui.Controls.Compatibility;

public static class MauiProgram
{
    public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
    {
        var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
        builder
            .UseTelerik()
            .UseMauiApp<App>()
            .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
            {
                fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
            });

        return builder.Build();
    }
}
