  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • glib

    Low-level core library that forms the basis for GTK+ and GNOME (by bratsche)

  • The GTK library might not be a terrible choice if you end up targeting Linux. It's fast to prototype with (in my experience) and very well-optimized for touch/tablet interfaces. Well worth checking out IMO: https://www.gtk.org/

  • Avalonia

    Develop Desktop, Embedded, Mobile and WebAssembly apps with C# and XAML. The most popular .NET UI client technology

  • You might also want to look at AvaloniaUI[0] for a cross platform .NET GUI library. It is similar to WPF but much nicer to work with.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
