Overview
The Scheduler for .NET MAUI lets you configure repeating appointments. The user has the ability to apply recurring scheduling patterns such as daily, weekly, and monthly, or set a range of recurrence from date to date. The flexible rule mechanism covers the most common recurrence scenarios. Furthermore, you also have the option to handle the exceptions from this rule.
To support the recurrence behavior, the Appointment class exposes RecurrenceRule property. The RecurrenceRule class is the engine for creating and evaluating recurrence rules. It has a mandatory Pattern property of type RecurrencePattern which defines the frequency, days of week, max occurrences, and more, of the recurrent appointment. Through the RecurrenceRule property you can also define exception appointments.
The example below shows a simple recurrent appointment which occurs every week day and has overall 10 occurrences:

Frequency = RecurrenceFrequency.Daily,

MaxOccurrences = 10
};
