Electron is the only cross platform gui toolkit…

If you ignore QT, GTK and everything else.

I’m so glad that Microsoft makes an awesome cross platfor— wait, no, but they contribute code to— hmmm … Hey, what does Microsoft do to make apps more portable again?

.net
.net cli apps are cross platform and can be portable :p
Gui in .net isnt fully cross platform ( maui is everything except linux ) but frameworks like avalonia and imgui fix all that :')
Does not MAUI compile to Linux, just that you need to compile on Windows?
Nope. The ui framework doesnt support linux at all. None of its cross platform claases and enums have linux. Its stupid because .net and aspcore just work on linux…

Android, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Windows

Everything but Linux, that’s funny.

I look at MAUI a year or so ago and IIRC, “official” Linux support was made by the community.
