Get Started

While you can write complete Fabulous applications, Fabulous cannot be used independently as it does not provide any UI rendering by itself.

You'll need to choose a "flavor" of Fabulous first:

• Fabulous for .NET MAUI
• Fabulous for Avalonia

The flavor you choose will determine the requirements, the available widgets and the supported platforms you can target.

Avalonia uses a freemium model: its core framework and standard controls are free and open source, while selected premium controls require a commercial license. Review Avalonia licensing before choosing extension controls.

Once chosen, please refer to the corresponding "Get Started" documentation to learn more about writing an app with that flavor.
