Even web assembly would still require a full webkit / browser instance though. UWP or WPF apps that run XAML don't have a browser instance (unless they use webview) and the memory footprint is much much lower than the equivalent electron app. I'd like to see cross platform xaml so I can build a .net core app with a GUI that will run on Mac or Linux.
- LemurMadness 9y agoIt looks like there's two options for cross-platform XAML UIs: * Prism [1], which doesn't seem to support .NET Core. It was originally created by Microsoft Patterns & Practices, but then open sourced it. It's now community maintained. It looks like it's still being actively developed as there was a merge 4 days ago. * Avalonia [2], which supports .NET Core but is still in alpha.
