Installing and Basics of Telerik UI for .NET MAUI AI Coding Assistant

Progress has released an MCP server called the Telerik UI for .NET MAUI AI Coding Assistant, which connects AI coding tools like GitHub Copilot to Telerik's own documentation and component knowledge. The tutorial covers prerequisites, license key setup, installation via .NET CLI, and configuration in both VS Code and Visual Studio 2026. Practical examples show how the MCP server can replace standard MAUI controls with Telerik equivalents and add features like paging to a DataGrid, all through natural language prompts in just a few minutes.
