Qml.Net VS MUI

Or QML.Net

QML.Net seems to be the best of the bunch for this right now.

It looks like there are actually qml bindings for mono but not sure how active they are developed...still probably the closest you get if you want to stuck with .net

You might try QML.Net. That's a Qt library for C#, which (in theory) should play nice with LXDE in Raspbian. In theory. YMMV.

BLUF: Does anyone have some experience with qmlnet?

Instead, write your project as if you're targeting Linux. If you need a GUI, use QML.Net. It's a C# binding for QT. To access USB, try LibUsbDotNet.

Since you're specifically looking for a replacement for a desktop UI framework, I would look into QML.Net. It works across Windows and Linux (and even MacOS X) by using the Qt framework under the hood.

And there's Qml.Net if qml/qt is more what you want.

I mean, Material is just a design system that people reference to create UI libraries. If you're working with headless components, you'd keep those same design system references when writing styles for said components. Plenty of examples of people utilizing something like Tailwind and following Material guidelines, ex Material Tailwind, Smelte, or MUICSS. Would highly recommend going the manual route (custom css/less/scss or tailwind, etc) + headless UI as it's really effective at reducing bloat in your application, and if you do it right it's extraordinarily extensible and customizable compared to just full sending an existing lib.
