Is it really? Does microsoft have no faith in its own user32 UI API?

[–] MashedTech@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago

Yeah, windows apps, even official ones are just a mix of react native apps.

I used to be with it! (XAML) Then they changed what it is! (WinUI)

WinUI is yet another thing, it's not React native. It's kind of a new version of WPF with additional things and you can still use XAML

When I tried to use it it seemed like WPF but worse (except for the modern theming, but that I can get in WPF via the 3rd party ”WPF UI”).
