Hello, Thanks for this great tools @mrlacey a great utilities to start .net MAUI journey .

Would you like to consider adding the ability to added to the project a Mobile and desktop Shell based on this Tutorial project sample https://github.com/naweed/Maui.Device-Specific-Views-Sample credits to @naweed (thanks also for his great tutorial)

The consequences of adding such a thing adds a lot of (ongoing) behind-the-scenes effort and testing. If/when doing this, I think it should be part of a general-purpose alternative navigation solution that is capable of doing more than just distinguishing between mobile & desktop versions. It should be general purpose and easily further extensible too.

Regarding The test, I could help and report. Also I completly agree with you I think you got the bigger picture. I was trying to reproduce what I saw in DotNet PodCast app with Mobile and Desktop Shell when I found the tutorial and as your tools was my starting point I tried to suggest it as a feature :)
