System requirements for 300.0

This page lists system requirements for the 300.0 release of ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET, which contains APIs to develop apps for Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Windows UI Library (WinUI) 3, and .NET MAUI. Each API has specific system requirements for your development machine as well as for the machines and devices to which you deploy your app. The framework, platform, or operating system version and updates listed below are supported as long as it is also currently supported by its provider for general or public use.

Development requirements

Develop apps with ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET on Windows using Visual Studio to create WPF, WinUI, and .NET MAUI apps. On macOS, you can target Android, iOS, and macOS platforms using Visual Studio Code with the .NET MAUI extension.

Developing apps on Windows

Operating systems

• Windows 11 version 23H2 (build 22631) or higher
• Windows Server 2025 Standard and Datacenter
• Windows Server 2022 Standard and Datacenter

Processor architectures

• x64
• ARM64

Graphics

On Windows, ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET uses DirectX to provide high-performance rendering of maps and scenes.

• To work with MapView or SceneView, DirectX 11 Feature Level 10 is required.
• To work with LocalSceneView, Direct X 11 Feature Level 11 is required.

To support high-performance analysis

• Direct3D 12 with feature level 11.1 (or feature level 11.0 with Resource Binding Tier 2).
