The UI frameworks are hopelessly interlinked. I can't even get it to trim out WPF from an all-WinForms app. I don't have any hope that this will improve substantially for desktop apps; I'm sorta just happy they're still supporting our desktop UI frameworks at all.
- DeathArrow 4y agoWPF and Web Forms are almost dead. Now MAUI is taking over. I hope this one won't be dead, too, in a few years.
- viraptor 4y agoI don't get why people are repeating that. WPF is not dead, it's fully supported and the project has a future roadmap. (https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/blob/main/roadmap.md https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/blob/main/roadmap.md) MAUI is not taking over, it's not even released yet. We only just got a release candidate 3 this month. Looking at local job postings, WPF had hundreds of hits, while MAUI has... 3 "xamarin or maui" mentions.
