SkiaSharp.Views

NuGet NuGet downloads License: MIT

SkiaSharp.Views provides native SkiaSharp drawing views for Android, iOS, Mac Catalyst, macOS, tvOS, and Tizen applications. Each view owns the platform rendering surface and raises a familiar PaintSurface event so application code can draw with SKCanvas.

What you get

  • SKCanvasView for CPU-rendered, on-demand drawing.
  • GPU-backed views using OpenGL, Metal, or the platform's accelerated rendering surface.
  • Touch and input helpers, density-aware sizing, and explicit invalidation.
  • Platform-native view types that fit directly into each UI framework.

Get started

Install the package into a native platform application:

dotnet add package SkiaSharp.Views

Create the platform SKCanvasView and handle PaintSurface:

private void OnPaintSurface(object sender, SKPaintSurfaceEventArgs e)
{
    var canvas = e.Surface.Canvas;
    canvas.Clear(SKColors.White);

    using var paint = new SKPaint
    {
        Color = SKColors.CornflowerBlue,
        IsAntialias = true,
    };

    canvas.DrawCircle(e.Info.Width / 2f, e.Info.Height / 2f, 120, paint);
}

The namespace and native base type vary by target:

Target Namespace Primary view
Android SkiaSharp.Views.Android SKCanvasView
iOS and Mac Catalyst SkiaSharp.Views.iOS SKCanvasView
macOS SkiaSharp.Views.Mac SKCanvasView
tvOS SkiaSharp.Views.tvOS SKCanvasView
Tizen SkiaSharp.Views.Tizen SKCanvasView
