Ask HN: Write once, run anywhere front ends failed. Thoughts?
> the first, MVP-style, attempt will be using Electron.
Good choice.
If you want to stick to HTML...WebView2 is suppose to replace it, but it assumes your backend code is .NET or C++, instead of JS/Node.js. Microsoft Teams is using it.
If you want to use native Windows UI components from JS code, then React Native for Windows is recommended. Facebook Messenger is using it.
All approaches require C# or C++ modules to be used to interact with the Windows Platform. Or there is: https://github.com/tjanczuk/edge.
The recommended approach is WinUI 3 which would involve C#/C++ and XAML.
To SwiftUI/React/JetPack are called module-view-update (MVU). There is an MVU for C# called Comet. https://github.com/dotnet/Comet#key-concepts

Clippy goes full cross-platform thanks to Avalonia UI framework
The benefit at least with the approach instead of embedding Avalonia inside Maui is you could potentially use non xaml frameworks for ui as long as they support Maui as a target. Stuff like Comet or Blazor mobile bindings would be possible aside from xaml. Especially if they're coming from Blazor web or code based ui frameworks like flutter which makes it appealing.

That was using the experimental Comet extension and lib, based on .NET MAUI. You can find instructions here: https://github.com/dotnet/Comet

What's new in the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit
The MVU library is called Comet. The lead developer recently left Microsoft but im still seeing commits on the repo which is a good sign!

Is .net MAUI appropriate for a bachelor's thesis?
Yeah the hybrid blazor stuff is interesting. So is https://github.com/dotnet/Comet.

XAML or C# code to build UI, which approach is preferred?
The XAML API is definitely more compact overall which is unfortunate, mostly because a lot of the devs prefer XAML. I've always preferred code-based UI though. Theres some 2ndish/3rd party options with Comet, which changes the UI pattern to MVU and C# Markup, which might not be updated for MAUI yet.

Blazor hybrid
All the C# parts for Hybrid (including the components themselves) are running natively. Only the UI part (e.g. html, css) under the Web View is running web tech (html, css) under a native webview of the platform. But you can also add native MAUI controls if you wanted to (either via XAML, or Comet) and mix and match as that webview control that Blazor uses is just a MAUI control.
- Why is xaml still a thing?

Comet Development on macOS
I recently built a little single page project with Comet that you can check out. If you have built anything, I'd love to see it and hear about your experience with Comet. Flag me down on Twitter (@davidortinau) or via email ([email protected]).
