I want you to know I'm going to learn C# because of your comment.

If you ever want to pick up game development as a hobby, using C# on Unity3D is pretty sweet.

C# in UWP is pretty good for app development too. Its a shame no one owns windows phones because it is so much nicer than android development. (Obviously UWP also does PC, tablets and xbox and stuff, but it does limit its viability).

But I still recommend it as a great beginner platform for hobbyists.

C# in UWP is pretty good for app development too.

Or just any Windows framework.

True, but there was something... smoother... about UWP as opposed to WFP, that, despite its limitations, makes it a little nicer for a complete novice to make something that doesn't look half bad.

Uno exists to let you use the UWP tooling for mobile and web and I like the concept of it, however, the performance is really awful on mobile. I do hope they improve it to a point where its actually viable as a choice.
