# Using ComponentOne Template

## Content



**ComponentOne MAUI Edition** provides predefined project templates to create and configure MAUI applications in Visual Studio. These project templates get registered in Visual Studio after the ComponentOne Studio installer is run to install **MAUI Edition**. ComponentOne project template provides several benefits over Visual Studio templates as it automatically adds the required resources to the project as listed below:

*   Adds required MAUI Edition references to the project.
*   Registers all the ComponentOne MAUI controls to the project.
*   Adds a sample to see the related control or component in action.

Complete the following steps to create a MAUI project in Visual Studio using ComponentOne project templates and use the ComponentOne MAUI controls. First, you need to make sure to check the [System Requirements](/componentone/docs/maui/online-maui/get-started#requirements) before proceeding.

1.  Open **Visual Studio** and select **Create a new project** from the **Get started** pane.<br />![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/4e85e507-742e-4a29-b3fe-f23b37c29164/images/vs-maui-createproj.png)<br />
2.  In the **Create a new project** window, type C1 in the search bar to get the list of all the installed C1 templates and select **MAUI** from the project drop-down.
3.  Select the **MAUI Grid App 7.0 (C#)** project type and click **Next**.<br />![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/4e85e507-742e-4a29-b3fe-f23b37c29164/images/c1-maui-template.png)
4.  In the **Configure your new project** window, provide name of the project you want to create in the **Project name** field, say Maui\_App, and location for the project in the **Location** field. We have kept the default Project name, GridApp1. Then, click **Create**.<br />![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/4e85e507-742e-4a29-b3fe-f23b37c29164/images/c1-configure-project.png)<br />Observe that a new .NET MAUI app is created with the following dependencies.
    *   C1.Maui.Calendar
    *   C1.Maui.Core
    *   C1.Maui.Grid
    *   C1.Maui.GridControl
