Pretty slick. A mc on steroid for a GUI world.
Interesting that it was built in .Net and appears to be using WPF with a few improvements[1].
It also refers to Vanara[2] which looks interesting as a safe utility wrapper to the Windows API.

- pieno 6y agoI used WPF a few times when it just came out. Really enjoyed it (definitely compared to what was available at the time). I think a lot of people felt the same way but then Microsoft really killed it by being ambiguous on its future and not giving it any love or attention. Microsoft was betting on their new Universal/Moderm/Metro UI with JS-or-something but AFAIK that never really became a mature technology that could be used for anything other than simple “fart button” style apps. Only recently have they realised what a great technology they have floundered and started giving it some love again, unfortunately only after most fans had already left the party.
