Lee's opinions on Umbraco + naming things
Why is this a problem? At face value, it isn't a problem. Taking a step back at a more global level, what does "uComponents" mean to the rest of the world? Many of the .NET developers who heavily use NuGet may have not even heard of Umbraco CMS, let alone a 3rd party plugin for it. What if people from the Uno Platform community are browsing NuGet for some kind of components extension library? You can see, this could get confusing outside the scope of the Umbraco community/ecosystem. On top of this, uComponents was developed against Umbraco v4, with its last release in 2016, now it's there to be lingering on the NuGet repository until the end of time, set in stone.

Dart 3.1 and a retrospective on functional style programming in Dart
Not a fan of XAML after trying to get into it, but there is Uno Platform. It wraps native widgets on mobile, just like React Native (which is good for accessibility), and uses C#. https://platform.uno/
My guess is that it's mainly focused on mobile. On Windows, it has no overhead (behaving like a normal WinUI 3 app), on macOS I think it uses Catalyst by default (which was developed by Apple to make more iOS apps available for Mac desktops) and on Linux it draws its own widgets that the devs try imitating the GTK style with.
On Android and iOS, it just uses the native widgets which I think is a better experience so you can see my reasons for guessing it's mobile-first. That may or may not be what you want.

Going from React to Vanilla JavaScript
> ...building UIs with the document/element api
When the whole premise is flawed, JSX or not, does it really matter if there is a better or worse way of misusing a technology not meant for UIs?
Leave HTML and JavaScript to Wikipedia and other hypertext document libraries.
Unfortunately, WASM is not there yet, but people are trying: https://platform.uno.

Using ImGui.NET with SDL2-CS?
Now I'm trying to integrate ImGui into the engine. One solution I found was using this but as far as I can tell it locks you into using OpenGL which is something I would like to avoid as one of the main selling points of SDL2 for me is it's abstraction over the rendering backend.

c# native with a gui
In additiona to imgui wrapper which works great with NativeAOT, only slight nudge and you have 10Mb executable. With all deps it's 13Mb. Also there Avalonia mentioned in sibling message which work great and in 11.0-preview5 probably would not need any additional configuraiton. In case if OP is have soft spot for web tech, he can use photino.Blazor which also with slight modifications would simply works and produce 27Mb executable.

Need help with converting C++ to C#
I'm converting rlImGui from C++ to C# so I can use it with ImGui.NET and Raylib-cs but I'm getting stuck at a couple places. I don't know how to convert line 331 to C# since in ImGui.NET cmd.UserCallback is an IntPtr and not something I can call. I did a quick google search and you can use the Marshal library to convert it to a callable delegate but I think you need to also have the delegate known to do that. There's also line 82 but that is specific to Raylib. The function it calls does not seem to be included in Raylib-cs. Also, rlImGui keeps using a Texture type but that is not defined in Raylib-cs or ImGui.NET. I assume I can substitute it with Texture2D from Raylib-cs but I'm not to the point in porting to see if Texture2D has the necessary fields/properties/methods.

If you use this example implementation for XNA/MonoGame, you can just use ImGuiRenderer.BindTexture() which returns an IntPtr.

Are there any low-level library options for creating desktop apps?
The only thing I could really think of is something like ImGui for C# (https://github.com/mellinoe/ImGui.NET) but I've never used it. It's going to give you some simple wrappers around ImGui (https://github.com/ocornut/imgui) but even this is going to lock you into the UI framework -- you can't just "draw a rectangle" per se and use it as a "control." Do note however this is an "immediate mode" GUI which is different from how most general desktop windowing systems work in "retained mode" (which are typically event driven, which saves on computing power to not draw the same stuff over and over).
