🚀 MauiPersianToolkit Now Supports .NET 10

Reza Shaban — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 14:40:22 +0000

When I first released MauiPersianToolkit, my goal was simple: make it easier to build Persian (Farsi) and RTL-friendly applications with .NET MAUI.

Today, I'm happy to announce that MauiPersianToolkit has been upgraded to .NET 10.

What's New

This release includes:

✅ Full support for .NET 10
⚡ Better compatibility with the latest .NET MAUI
🧹 Internal code cleanup and modernization
📈 Improved compiled XAML bindings
📚 Ongoing documentation and Wiki improvements

Why .NET 10?

.NET 10 brings several improvements that make it an excellent choice for MAUI developers:

Better runtime performance
More mature XAML compiled bindings
Improved MAUI stability
Latest platform support for Android, iOS, and Windows

Upgrading the toolkit ensures developers can benefit from these improvements while continuing to build high-quality Persian applications.

Building RTL-Friendly Apps with .NET MAUI: Introducing MauiPersianToolkit – Persian/Hijri Calendar, RTL & Ready-to-Use Controls

Reza Shaban — Sat, 03 Jan 2026 16:31:08 +0000

Hey .NET community! 👋

If you've ever tried building a cross-platform app in .NET MAUI that needs to support RTL language properly, you probably faced these pains:

No native Persian/Hijri calendar support in standard controls
RTL layout headaches in Entry, Editor, Picker, dialogs, etc.
Date conversion between Gregorian ↔ Jalali that's always messy
Missing beautiful Persian fonts out of the box
Lots of boilerplate for simple things like Persian alerts

Good news: I built MauiPersianToolkit exactly to fix these! 🚀

What is MauiPersianToolkit?

A lightweight, free & open-source (MIT) library for .NET MAUI packed with Persian-focused controls and helpers.

Key Features (as of v2.0.7 – January 2026):

PersianDatePicker – Single date, multi-date & range selection
Supports 3 calendars at once: Jalali (Persian), Gregorian & Hijri
RTL-ready controls: TreeView, TabView, Expander, CheckBox, CircleImage, SlideButton...
Persian Entry & Editor with full RTL and right language input
Beautiful Persian Dialogs: Alert, Confirm, Prompt, Custom
Date converters for easy data-binding
Built-in IranianSans font & FontAwesome icons
Fully tested (20+ unit tests) & works on Android, iOS, Windows & macOS

Super Quick Setup (1 minute!)

dotnet add package MauiPersianToolkit

Then in MauiProgram.cs:

builder
    .UseMauiApp<App>()
    .UseMauiPersianToolkit();  // That's it!

Real-World Example: Persian Range DatePicker

<toolkit:PersianDatePicker 
    Mode="Range"
    MinimumDate="{x:Static sys:DateTime.Today}"
    MaximumDate="{x:Static sys:DateTime.Today.AddYears(1)}"
    SelectedDate="{Binding SelectedDate}"
    SelectedDates="{Binding SelectedDates}"
    FlowDirection="RightToLeft" />

Or grab values in C#:

var start = MyDatePicker.SelectedDates.FirstOrDefault()?.ToLongDateString(); // Beautiful Persian output!

Why Choose This Over Commercial Controls?

100% free & open-source (unlike Syncfusion, Telerik...)
Lightweight & mobile-optimized
Special focus on Iranian/Persian developer needs + RTL perfection
Actively maintained & up-to-date with .NET 9 / MAUI latest

It already has growing interest in the Persian .NET community — let's make it global! 🌍
