    WPF is not the best example of open source, as some components are still closed source. Though it only runs on Windows, a closed source operating system, so perhaps that is not so important.

    https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/issues/2554

    That said, there are cross platform, open source .NET UI frameworks out there, including one that is inspired by WPF:

  • Project mention: How exactly does Unity integrate with IDEs - how does the editor build work? | /r/Unity3D | 2023-07-23

    In the video you basically install .NET 7.0 SDK with the deb packages from Microsoft repos AND mono deb packages from repos laid out in https://www.mono-project.com/ apart from Unity and VS Code. And then you configure VS Code so that it always uses Mono installed in the system (not Unity Editor's own instance???)

  • Project mention: Help with matching Serilog with Regex | /r/dotnet | 2023-12-10

    What is it you're trying to accomplish? Either this is a regular expression problem (not really dotnet related) or you should try using structured logging, with a provider and sink that support it so you don't have to use regular expressions.

  • Project mention: Anyone else bitterly disappointed that 2023.12 release didn't include mobile (iOS / Android) passkey support? | /r/Bitwarden | 2023-12-08

    Given that Xamarin has been deprecated its successor MAUI has the iOS 17/Android 14 SDKs, I think https://github.com/bitwarden/mobile/pull/2806 needs to be merged first/probably more work to be done after that too.
