Azure Mobile Apps

** This project is now archived and superceded by CommunityToolkit/Datasync

Azure Mobile Apps has been retired. While you are free to continue using this product as-is, no further updates will be made to it.

Future datasync library capabilities will be produced by the CommunityToolkit/Datasync project, including support for future versions of dotNET. Community Toolkit is a member of the dotNet Foundation.


Original README.md

Azure Mobile Apps (also known as the Microsoft Datasync Framework) is a set of client and server libraries for adding authenticated data access and offline synchronization to your mobile applications.

Currently, we support:

  • Server: ASP.NET Core for .NET 6.
  • Client: .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET 6.

The client platforms that support .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET 6 include:

  • AvaloniaUI
  • .NET MAUI
  • Uno Platform
  • Windows (UWP, WinUI3, WPF)
  • Xamarin Forms
  • Xamarin Native (Android and iOS)

Blazor and Unity are known to have issues with offline support since neither supports Sqlite natively.

To get started, take a look at our documentation.

The older (v4.2.0 and earlier) libraries are retired and no longer supported. You can find the source code in the archive branch.

Libraries

.NET (sdk/dotnet)

The server-side library uses ASP.NET Core 6.0 and provides stores for in-memory data, LiteDb, and Entity Framework Core.

Released and supported versions of the library will be distributed by the normal NuGet mechanism:
