I have a Winforms application that was on .NET Framework 4. I was able to update the application to .Net 6. Now I want to be able to run the application on cross platform (Windows, Android, and iOS). It seems that my option is to migrate over to a Blazor app. I can't find information on how to do the migration. Can anyone help point me in the right direction or provide another solution?

That said, porting your WinForms app to MAUI will be essentially the same as porting your WinForms app to Xamarin, so you can use the porting guide at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/cross-platform/desktop/porting .
Your business logic is likely to port over readily if it's not tangled with the UI. Your UI will need to be rewritten in either XAML (for a typical MAUI app) or HTML (if you aim for Blazor).
