10 Dec 202424 minutes to read
The SfDataGrid allows you to customize the style of the individual cells and rows based on the requirements.
To get start quickly with apply conditional styling in .NET MAUI DataGrid, you can check on this video:
Conditional row style
The data rows can be customized conditionally by writing the style with a converter for the DataGridRow control. Its BindingContext is the underlying datasource object.

return Colors.LightBlue;
else
return Colors.White;
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)

Conditional style for particular column
The SfDataGrid provides the support to apply the conditional style for specific column by using the CellStyle property in the DataGridColumn.
