Entity Framework

EF = Entity Framework. (1) It's an ORM (Object-rational Mapper) for querying SQL databases into objects. Somewhat the same space as "Hibernate" in Java. Some prefer e.g. Dapper as it's much more light-weight. EF is very much a big thing, but some people need and want that. 1) https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/ 2) https://dapper-tutorial.net/.

Xojo

I've been using Xojo (https://xojo.com) for about 15 years now to make cross-platform GUI apps. The language is similar to VB6 but it's been constantly updated. No affiliation, just a happy customer.

Avalonia

For a WPF-like development experience that's also cross-platform, perhaps take a look at Avalonia: http://avaloniaui.net/. It's not a drop-in replacement, but very, very similar.
