I was chatting with a colleague this morning about our GitHub donations (for @avaloniaui)
If each user donated $1 a month, we could expand our team from 11 to 70+ developers, funded entirely by donations 🤯
Imagine what we could achieve with that kind of engineering power!
@Migueldeicaza @paulmcaleer My Audi Q3 has ChatGPT, though I don’t know when it started supporting it.
It has come in useful to get a conclusive answer when disagreeing with the wife.
It’s also fun to have it read poems about traffic jams and bad Italian drivers.
But it really is a pointless feature.
@mikegoatly @avaloniaui @shemjm the ecosystem is slowly growing and I know of other control manufacturers exploring building natively.
XPF is a good stop gap, and from a commercial perspective, it’s good for vendors and it’s good for us.
I think my wife had hidden this beautiful T-shirt, but today I found it!
It is very tempting to get some limited edition @avaloniaui versions made.
@khalidabuhakmeh @jumar This is something I’ve discussed with James Montemagno. Ideally, we’d expand the MAUI.Essentials to avoid fragmenting the ecosystem, but we support a broader range of platforms.
There isn’t an easy answer, as I think the best developer experience will come from rolling out our own solution or having the community pick up this work.
