Can this skill help reduce my final application file size?

Yes, it includes detailed instructions for configuring IL trimming and NativeAOT to remove unused code and optimize the binary size.

Why should I use compiled bindings instead of traditional ones?

Compiled bindings (x:DataType) are 8–20x faster than reflection-based bindings and are essential for apps using IL trimming and NativeAOT.

Does it provide help with performance profiling?

Yes, it covers using cross-platform tools like dotnet-trace and Windows-specific tools like PerfView to measure performance before and after optimizations.

How does this skill improve .NET MAUI startup time?

It provides guidance on minimizing work in constructors, using lazy initialization, and enabling NativeAOT to compile code ahead-of-time for faster execution.

What is the recommended layout strategy for performance?

The skill suggests preferring Grids over nested StackLayouts because Grids can often resolve the layout in a single pass, reducing measurement overhead.
