Foreword
In the middle of the year, a public welfare WPF video tutorial was organized. Within half a day, over 2W+ in funds were raised, thus launching this video recording plan. So far, the video tutorial has concluded.
Here, I would like to express my gratitude to the students who participated in this tutorial and those who have been supporting it for a long time. Below, I will mainly explain the plans for making these videos public and the plans for the future.
Video Publication Plan
This video collection totals 58 episodes, covering the basics of WPF (Layout, Styles, Resources, Animation, Templates, MVVM), Prism concepts (Region, Navigation, DialogService, Module, etc.), MaterialDesign integration, ASP.NET Core WebApi (Entity Framework, Publishing and Deployment), client publishing, deployment, and the complete development process.
To reduce the learning pressure on students, these videos will not be released all at once on the video platform, but will be published in stages (e.g., 2 episodes per day). The entire release cycle is expected to be completed within approximately one month.

Current Plan
After completing this tutorial series, the main future plans are to record tutorials for Xamarin, MAUI, and to develop a cross-platform rapid development framework.
The current development work is focused on the cross-platform rapid development framework, which is expected to be available to everyone around mid-2022.
Students who participated in this public welfare video tutorial will receive an absolute discount on the complete source code and video tutorial of the cross-platform rapid framework. Specific plans will be announced in mid-next year.
Below are some current screenshots of the rapid development framework:

Xamarin.Forms:
After development is completed, work will begin on documentation and video tutorial recording. Therefore, the expected time will be relatively long.
Future Plans
In addition to the current plan, in the future, the framework will be ported to MAUI as a complete native cross-platform solution. Public welfare video tutorials will also follow Microsoft's release timeline for MAUI, and advance notice will be given in the QQ group.
