Do you think that Microsoft gets C# and especially anything design or UI related to .NET to a point where anyone outside of Microsoft would be willing to use it? The last decades was just disaster after disaster with the latest one being MAUI. I really like C# and F#, but Microsoft is so many years behind creating an actual usable UI framework, it is just sad...
Yea agreed, they had a great start with Windows Forms, and WPF, but it seemed like efforts to build on that have repeatedly fallen short. I am cautiously optimistic that WinUI3 might finally be the next one, but only time will tell. For many people just having the Microsoft brand behind it is enough, but for anyone willing to consider third party I have really been liking Avalonia UI recently.
@@Kitokeboo Avalonia UI looks very interesting indeed, although their web playground isn't the most performant. The desktop and mobile UIs built with that look beautiful, I will definitely try it out.
The git kraken UI always seems really snappy and smooth. Given its multi platform, is it using Avalonia?
@@SirBenJamin_ it is electron I believe, but yes it does have a great feel.
