.NET MAUI Transparent Status Bar

Question

How do I make the status bar transparent and show the content behind it on Android using .NET MAUI?

I've seen this post, is there a way to recreate this using C#?

Similar to Google Maps:

Try this , in MauiProgram.cs

    .ConfigureLifecycleEvents(events =>
            {
#if ANDROID
                events.AddAndroid(android => android.OnCreate((activity, bundle) => MakeStatusBarTranslucent(activity)));

                static void MakeStatusBarTranslucent(Android.App.Activity activity)
                {
                    activity.Window.SetFlags(Android.Views.WindowManagerFlags.LayoutNoLimits, Android.Views.WindowManagerFlags.LayoutNoLimits);

                    activity.Window.ClearFlags(Android.Views.WindowManagerFlags.TranslucentStatus);

                    activity.Window.SetStatusBarColor(Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
                }
#endif
            });
