"Windows Forms" is listed in the unified platform image... I think that's still around (but windows only).
Though other upgrades to an application may take more work for .Net 5/6
- ygra 6y agoWindows Forms is the wrapper around the Win32 API. We forms is the ASP.NET part that mimics how Windows Forms works, where near every look or button click included a server roundtrip (doPostback or so was the JavaScript function named that did this, which then sent pretty much the entire current application state as Base64). Those two things are district, even though I've is intentionally similar to the other. And We forms is part of the things that didn't make it to .NET Core or .NET 5.
- tracker1 6y agoSorry, in my mind I must have misread WebForms as WinForms... I stopped using WebForms really early on, some monorail or ashx, and then mvc. The performance and state overhead for webforms was really bad imo.
