Cross platform desktop application

[RutulPatel8]

How to create a cross platform desktop application? Which works on linux, mac, and windows platforms?

I tried maui already but it only supports mac-catalysts not mac.

Can we do these with a .net core or do we need to choose another framework like electron or something..

This isn't a question related to ASP.NET Core.

[RutulPatel8]

Yes are these for .net only. If dotnet isn't compatible with that. We need to look for another solution

@RutulPatel8 Take a look at Photino if you want to use Blazor / ASP.NET.

Hope this helps.

I did this for AI Studio: The UI is implemented using ASP.NET (Blazor) using the MudBlazor library. Since I also wanted to support the Linux desktop, and Microsoft currently does not support this (see e.g. dotnet/maui#11738 and dotnet/maui#5801), I chose Rust together with Tauri. So, there is a thin runtime layer written in Rust. Tauri then creates and manages the window. Works wonderfully 👍.
