They might be using apps, but my customers don't want to pay for developing for four or more separate platforms (Windows, macOS, Android, iOS - also notice that nobody would develop for Linux), so they solve it by having a single platform - the web. Many of my customers previously had (only) a Windows app but found out that onboarding new customers is much faster (and thus happens more) with web apps.
.NET is dead to me, I simply don't trust the platform/libraries to continue existence and receive updates. Also the JS/NPM ecosystem is much larger and that's truly what's keeping me there.
- pjmlp 4y agoYeah we don't get NuGet packages that only offer a single function...
- YesWeWill 4y agoMuch better to have a bunch of one-function packages that you can simply avoid than to have a dead package registry with 1/10 of the useful stuff (so not the one-function packages).
- pjmlp 4y agoWith the difference that in 10 years those packages will still have support, just like VB 6 runtime and MFC are still shipping on Windows 11.
