We are talking about Windows now, and there is zero cross-platform compatibility in Microsoft's UI frameworks (unless you mean cross-architecture between x86/amd64 and arm32/arm64). It is against their interests and they will never do it, just like Apple.
- PaulDavisThe1st 5y agoI don't see where we're talking about Windows. The alternatives to "Visual Basic + WinForms" are as likely to come from third party cross-platform toolkit developers as from anything Windows specific. And it doesn't matter what MS or Apple want or do, there are numerous cross-platform UI toolkits available, and there always will be, because a bunch of software developers are not going to play by their rules.
