Desktop UI with F# web frameworks?
There is https://github.com/fsprojects/interstellar . A super simple F# wrapper around web browsers. You can use it with Fable (https://github.com/jwosty/InterstellarFableHelloWorld). I have a pretty large project built on it.

Desktop UI with F# web frameworks?
SpiderEye seems to be a more mature wrapper. It comes with an F# template but I'm not aware of existing F# examples like the one for Interstellar.

Best .NET framework that both Mac and windows developers can use to make a desktop GUI?
A similar framework of the idea I wrote above is SpiderEye. There are others, but this one is good. I haven't used it in a real app as I rolled my own with P/Invoke, but you can use it if you want: https://github.com/JBildstein/SpiderEye
