Latest

This new release of the Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap adds support for .NET 9 and removes the need for a custom-built .NET runtime. This package is now taking full advantage of .NET WebAssembly workloads by Microsoft.

Among the SDK features that are now available as part of .NET 9:

  • Incremental Builds support, particularly when AOT is involved.
  • Satellite assemblies, Timezone and ICU partial downloads, giving the ability for localized to be fetched for relevant browser cultures
  • WebCIL, used to reduce the impacts of antiviruses
  • Individual assemblies cache breaker, used to ensure resources are not downloaded unnecessarily when unchanged.
  • Browser application caching for assemblies, used to initialize apps faster and avoid using the HTTP cache
  • CIL Strip after AOT, used to remove code that has been AOT compiled from assemblies
  • Jiterpreter updates to improve the Wasm interpreter mode performance
  • AOT builds can now be created on macOS, Windows arm64 and Linux arm64
  • Python and emscripten are now automatically managed by the .NET SDK, and ninja-build is not needed anymore
  • Improved debugging support, as the whole tooling chain provided by .NET, making it natively compatible with VS and VS Code.

To migrate to .NET 9, make sure to take a look at our docs.

7.0.6

WebAssembly Bootstrap 7.0

Along with the .NET 7 support, we’re introducing a stable version of the Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap package, the foundation of Uno.UI’s WebAssembly support. We’ve adjusted the versioning scheme so that the major version number matches the associated .NET runtime version.

This new version of the bootstrapper is backward compatible with your net6.0 apps, and you don’t need to upgrade to .NET 7 to use it.

This release is built using the .NET 7.0.100 sources that the .NET team will use on release day, meaning that you’re already set to use the latest and greatest.

This release introduces a lot of new fixes and features, let’s dive in detail.

  • Obfuscation and custom extensions support has been added to work around firewalls and antiviruses that may block .NET binaries. Uno already uses the “.clr” extension, yet some anti-viruses may still detect the Win32 header through deep inspection, which simple obfuscation can work around.

  • Static assets support, used for ASP.NET Core hosting. See the ASP.NET Core Hosting section in this post for more information. This feature allows for an ASP.NET Core project to take a “project reference” on a WebAssembly app, to include its output in the “wwwroot” folder to deploy in a single package. The introduction of the new Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap.Server package supports ASP.NET Core projects host Uno Wasm Bootstrap projects to serve these static assets.

  • Threading preview support, a big demand for performance hungry users. Threading makes use of WebAssembly threads and comes close to the desktop threading model. A new SynchronizationContext has been introduced to easily go back and forth the main thread. The support is still in preview as there are still some threading affinity issues with JS-bound APIs that need to be fixed. As we mentioned back in June, give it a try and let us know what you can do with it!

    Also note that threading requires a specific security context in browsers, which can cause SSO flows to fail.

    Threading can be enabled using <WasmShellEnableThreads>true</WasmShellEnableThreads> in your csproj.

  • SIMD support, another big demand from performance hungry apps. This feature enables the use of the Fixed-width SIMD WebAssembly specification and is available when building with AOT enabled. The hardware support for SIMD can be checked through the Vector.IsHardwareAccelerated.

  • Native libraries support updated layout, where the inclusion of optional Threading and SIMD makes for a new matrix of possibilities for native libraries. While threading is supported by all browsers (its preview status and security restrictions can make it inapplicable for some apps), and SIMD is not yet supported by Safari, it’s required for native libraries to be providing a matrix of already compiled versions of binaries.

    You’ll find examples of this new format in Uno.Sqlite-wasm and SkiaSharp, which looks like this in a package:

  • Native signatures generation support, which enables P/Invoke signatures to be anything that the app’s code will provide. This is particularly useful for interoperability with large native libraries, like SQLite.

Finally, as the main branch of dotnet/runtime is already on .NET 8, so are the Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap development builds, and there are some amazing improvements coming.

2.0.0

This new release of the Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap package provides support for .NET 5 (net5.0) target framework, using .NET for WebAssembly from dotnet/runtime.

It also provides support for:

The .NET Runtime for this release is dotnet/runtime@99e4fda, and this package is equivalent to 2.0.0-dev.180.

Upgrade path

When upgrading from the 1.3.x versions, there is nothing specific to do for the project to continue building and running.

If you want to upgrade to net5.0, you will need to:

  • Change the target framework to net5.0
  • Add a reference to Microsoft.Windows.Compatibility version 5.0.0
  • If you are using Uno Platform (Uno.UI.* packages), you will also need to upgrade to version 3.5 or later.

If you are using on AOT (Full or mixed), note that it is still a work in progress in dotnet/runtime, and that you may still find issues that will be addressed during the course of .NET 6 development, and will be included in later builds of the Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap package.

1.2

This release provides lots of updates from the 1.0 release:

  • The availability of WebAssembly AOT on Windows, through WSL
  • The removal of the DotNetCliToolReference reference that was causing troubles to the Visual Studio UI, replacing it with Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap.DevServer updateable via the UI
  • Support for Linux and macOS
  • Support for the Visual Studio 16.6 debugger
  • Lots of fixes from the mono team, including a memory corruption issue with SkiaSharp

Head to the documentation for more details on these updates.

Features

  • Add support for *.a files linking (cea619a)
  • Add support for LLVM's -fsanitize for native memory troubleshooting (2ffb3b1)
  • Add support for VS 2019 16.6 debugger (0131188)
  • Add Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap.DevServer package (e204754), closes #186
  • Added support for CommonJS. (7fdc629)
  • Enable Wasm profiling configuration (9fbbb8c)

  • Update to mono latest to take advantage of mono/mono#19671 (9b8e7a8)
  • Update to mono master latest (5df9be6)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • The Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap.Cli is now deprecated and needs to be replaced with the Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap.DevServer.
    To upgrade from previous versions of the bootstrapper:

    • If you had a <DotNetCliToolReference /> line, remove it
    • Add the <PackageReference Include="Uno.Wasm.Bootstrap.DevServer" Version="1.2.0" PrivateAssets="all" /> item in the same item group as the other nuget packages.

  • Support for .NET 2.2 and 3.0 has been removed. .NET Core 3.1 is now required.
