• The search for easier safe systems programming

  WPF is not the best example of open source, as some components are still closed source. Though it only runs on Windows, a closed source operating system, so perhaps that is not so important. https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/issues/2554. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• .NET on Linux: What a Contrast

  Yes, but the portable GUI frameworks by Microsoft themselves are generally not very good, and they tend to be abandoned after a couple of years. Avalonia is developed outside of the Microsoft corporate madness and seems to be slowly becoming the defacto cross-platform framework because it is expected to last a bit longer than a manager's attention span: https://avaloniaui.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Course using F#: Write your own tiny programming system(s)

  You should be able to use Avalonia[1] as an alternative GUI layer on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android. There is a beautiful Avalonia.FuncUI[2] and Avalonia.FuncUI.Elmish[3] which is an implementation of Elmish[4] (based of the Elm language[4]) for F#.

• Why Is the Front End Stack So Complicated?

  To bad Microsoft refuse to work on proper cross platform WPF support. I've tried Avalonia UI[0], but it's just not the same. For instance the lack of a proper out-of-the-box virtualized list. [0] https://avaloniaui.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• One Game, by One Man, on Six Platforms: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

  For desktop, Avalonia, hands down. https://avaloniaui.net/ Open source, powered by Skia, backed by JetBrains, and quite battle-tested at this point for small to medium-sized apps. In theory perfectly capable for enterprise as well, since it's basically a spiritual successor to WPF, which has been an industry standard for about 15 years. They're diving into mobile and WASM well, but that's more of a recent effort... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
