Any raw assets you want to be deployed with your application can be placed in this directory (and child directories) and given a Build Action of "MauiAsset": These files will be deployed with you package and will be accessible using .NET MAUI: async Task LoadMauiAsset() { using var stream = await FileSystem.OpenAppPackageFileAsync("AboutAssets.txt"); using var reader = new StreamReader(stream); var contents = reader.ReadToEnd(); }
