I had succeeded embedding an Angular application within a .NET MAUI app by setting the WebView source to the index.html of the Angular build output.

Steps I followed: In angular.json, set the outputPath of the Angular build to wwwroot/angular directory within the MAUI project. "outputPath": "../Maui/wwwroot/angular"

In the MAUI project, set the WebView source in MainPage.xaml:

<WebView x:Name="webView" Source="wwwroot/angular/browser/index.html" />

This approach allowed me to render Angular components inside my MAUI WebView on both mobile and desktop apps.

Limitation: The limitation of this approach is that accessing platform-specific APIs (such as sensors, file system, etc.) from the Angular app is tricky.

I tried using JSInterop, but I couldn't get it to work as expected. From the DevConsole, I was able to invoke the method successfully, but for some reasons, it did not work when I added the same script in the Angular scripts.

Reasons:
  • Blacklisted phrase (1): did not work
  • Long answer (-0.5):
  • Has code block (-0.5):
  • Low reputation (1):
