I've built GUI applications for Windows in the primary frameworks Microsoft provides (WinForm, WPF, MAUI, UWP). It is not terrible, but also not great. I have high hopes for MAUI, but honestly, it seems very PoC-ish compared to everything else Microsoft have provided. Tried X11 directly on Linux before I decided that it was just too difficult. Switched to QT, and there were a million bugs and quirks that forced me back to just Windows GUI development. JavaScript/HTML GUI frameworks along with embedded browsers have been the key to cross platform compatibility without all the fuss. But it seem to also have become the death of good real-time and responsive UIs.
