Is this with Visual Studio on Windows? Just tried it on macOS with VS Code and compiled and ran just fine here!

Yes, Visual Studio 2022 [17.9.5] .. My first indication was the warning
C:\Program Files\dotnet\packs\Microsoft.Maui.Sdk\8.0.7\Sdk\BundledVersions.targets(85,5): warning MA002: Starting with .NET 8, setting <UseMaui>true</UseMaui> does not automatically include NuGet package references in your project. Update your project by including this item: <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Maui.Controls" Version="8.0.7" />. You can skip this warning by setting <SkipValidateMauiImplicitPackageReferences>true</SkipValidateMauiImplicitPackageReferences> in your project file.

This would (to me) indicate that the project files had not been updated....so I figured I would ask...

Yeah I think there is a PR for that but that didn't get merged yet. Regardless, it works fine for me without it, as it should.

The real error seems to be this one: 1>Pages\Handheld\SignaturePage.xaml(25,48): XamlC error XFC0000: Cannot resolve type "clr-namespace:PointOfSale:Main".

from maui-samples.

Yes, as I said it was an indicator... as to the can not resolve type... that may be to be related to:

CSC : warning CS9057: The analyzer assembly 'C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\8.0.203\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Razor\source-generators\Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Razor.Compiler.SourceGenerators.dll' references version '4.9.0.0' of the compiler, which is newer than the currently running version '4.8.0.0'.

But not sure....

Also, note that this was done on a relatively clean machine that had not done any MAUI work previously. When opening the SLN in VS-2022 is indicated some additional components needed to be installed, and I let the VS ecosystem take care of that.

If you are using Vs-Code (this is 40% hypothesis, not use-case I actually do) that spawns off a bunch of dotnet command lines and there may be "workloads" involved that do not get set in the expected manner when the normal use case is via Visual Studio.....
