title: How to create a background service in .NET Maui
body: <p>I'm new to mobile app development and am learning .NET Maui. The app I'm creating needs to listen for Accelerometer events, and send a notification to a web service if the events meet certain criteria. The bit I'm struggling with is how to have the app run in the background, i.e. with no UI visible, without going to sleep, as I'd want the user to close the UI completely. So I'm thinking the app needs to run as some kind of service, with the option to show a UI when needed - how can this be done?</p>
