How to change header background dynamically in the .NET MAUI DataGrid control?

The .NET MAUI DataGrid allows you to dynamically change the header row background color using the HeaderRowBackground property in SfDataGrid.DefaultStyle.

The code example below illustrates how to change the header background dynamically.

 public class DataGridBehavior : Behavior<ContentPage>
 {
     private SfDataGrid? dataGrid;
     private EmployeeViewModel? employeeViewModel;

     protected override void OnAttachedTo(ContentPage page)
     {
         base.OnAttachedTo(page);
         employeeViewModel = new EmployeeViewModel();
         dataGrid = page.FindByName<SfDataGrid>("dataGrid");
         dataGrid.ItemsSource = employeeViewModel.Employees;
         dataGrid.DefaultStyle.HeaderRowBackground = Colors.Red;
     }

     protected override void OnDetachingFrom(ContentPage page)
     {
         base.OnDetachingFrom(page);
     }
 }
