The mobile application samples that use the Digi IoT Library for .NET MAUI are located in Digi’s digi-iot-maui repository on GitHub. If you have not done so yet, the first step before working with a Digi IoT Library for .NET MAUI example is to clone the repository.
Clone the repository
The first step to open an example is to clone the repository where the examples are located. Follow these steps to do so:

Open Visual Studio.
-
Choose the File > Clone Repository option from the main menu or select the Clone a repository option if you are in the Start window.

-
Choose the Local path where the repository will be cloned, then click Clone.
-
Next, Visual Studio loads the solution from the repository by using the Folder View in Solution Explorer.
-
Double-click the DigiIoT.sln file from the Solution Explorer - Views to open it.
