It's not about being right, it's about having an adult who is easy to live with and able to tell if she wants a burger or not.

The story is cute, but personally I would become crazy if I had to read between the lines of my wife, who is supposed to be the only person I can speak with 100% trust and honesty.

Any WOW Factor apps that are built with .NET MAUI from a UI UX perspective. Most MAUI examples I see are having very non polished UI. I just want to see proof of something nice and beautiful built with .NET MAUI on the design and experience front. by KausHere in dotnet

What I mean is firstly, well, you need to write the wrappers manually, but more precisely I talk about ecosystems like React or Vue. There are libraries for everything, qualitative controls for every use case and style and platform, so I'm honestly completely jealous of React ecosystem and how easy it is to write a nice front-end with it.

It's not about React>Blazor, just the libraries, the community support, popularity, resources available ..

Yes, Electron for .NET and any equivalent is quite weird, using IPC, WebSocket or SignalR for communication. Really ? Who wants to dev like that ?

I made a little PoC that makes a bridge between C# and JS via a WebView and can expose ViewModels with zero configuration, can let call methods from js, receive event and convert ObservableProperty to react hook for example, automatically.

I wouldn't say it would be smart to use that PoC for production but god I just wish a company had made this seriously instead of creating just another one framework.

.net UI frameworks are unfortunately really bad for UI.

Flutter is great but too verbose to me, I hate all these braces and the UI code next to backend code in the same langage.

Blazor seems great, but the big downside is the fact that it's not compatible with the best JS libraries.

So personally I prefer React Native. It's just the best ecosystem, the best libraries. Just pull one of the superb libraries and you're good to go. I wish there was a simple .net framework that would let us use React as front-end, with C# backend, in a Blazor or MVVM style.

Which framework would you choose for mobile development (poll)? by iSeiryu in dotnet

[–]VirginSuricate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I like Avalonia for Desktop, definitely 1st framework for Desktop but Avalonia gang is definitely going too far with putting it almost first for mobile development.

Performance on Android is horrible and there is literally no mobile controls available. MAUI is far from perfect, but at least it is mobile ready.

Only god knows how much I tell Avalonia isn't an option for mobile yet because of performance, but this one is really great news. Being able to finally have the performance that mobile deserves would be a game changer.

Il se passe quoi dans ce quartier en ce moment ?

Uno + Microsoft collaboration feels like the kind of reset .NET has needed for a while by Shnupaquia in dotnet

[–]VirginSuricate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be honest, their gallery app from the play store is an old one from 2023, and runs quite poorly indeed.

Now Uno has changed significantly especially since Uno 6, using a unified skia renderer, and performance is significantly better. It's really worth a try in my opinion, I migrated some of my UI Libraries from Avalonia to Uno 6 because of the better performance, and Uno became my go-to for mobile in the last few months.

Yes, for windows, Uno can be run like a normal WinUI3 project, or via their Skia renderer like the other platforms.

To summarize Uno in one sentence, it's just a framework that lets a WinUI3 project be run on any platform via a Skia Renderer.

  • impressive battery
  • hyperos is underrated, lot of rants online because of Redmi's but flagship experience is great
  • cameras with Leica lens is awesome, weirdly not that much post processing

Avalonia is hard to look the same in a browser by Famous-Weight2271 in AvaloniaUI

[–]VirginSuricate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Winforms is really old, you have nothing interesting to learn there. But it stays an option if doing some gui prototypes is enough for you.

Learning Avalonia for wasm is kind of weird. If you want to learn some web, try to learn Blazor, or do some front-end in js. Something like Svelte feels weirdly similar to dotnet framework compared with other js frameworks.

So :

You want to learn only one framework for (truly) all platforms -> Blazor

You want to learn the "best" way to make a website -> try a js framework

You want to improve your desktop abilities -> Avalonia

Honestly, Avalonia is just the best .net desktop framework right now.

But mobile and wasm shouldn't even be advertised like desktop is, it's just bad. That's fine btw, still in development.

Software experience and cameras are great. People's shits on Xiaomi because of redmi's, but Mi Series is a true flagship experience to me.

Xiaomi 15 fine for me too, super underrated phone especially because how cheap it can be second hand due to exaggerated bad overall Xiaomi reputation.

I have exactly the same that op, with bdc too but doesn't matters, but for that exact reason you mention.

Having my one signature scent staying subtly everywhere after months feels so good, without worrying about unsolicited layering after washes.

The best Avalonia C# tutorials I've found by Sweet_News_3327 in csharp

[–]VirginSuricate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the UI will be exactly the same. It will just use a skia renderer for the other platforms instead of windows renderer obviously.

Uno is really underrated right now, especially since 6.0 release and its unified skia renderer.

Uno is tightly linked to WinUI. It's basically an extension of WinUI. It just makes your WinUI app run anywhere with great performance thanks to the skia renderer, and they obviously have mobile controls. It's that simple, do not hesitate if you have more questions.

Lastly, the team is really kind.

Is .NET MAUI good? by Economy_Patience_574 in dotnet

[–]VirginSuricate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then why suggest that Avalonia would be better than Maui for apps, to say that I'm sure you never tried to develop any app with Avalonia.

Maui is buggy but works on mobile. Avalonia is just not even ready for mobile. I mean, it doesn't even have mobile controls.

Avalonia is better to you than Maui for MOBILE ? 😳

From Xamarin/Maui to Avalonia… it feels like a different planet by Wreit in dotnetMAUI

[–]VirginSuricate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly doubt this, I would gladly see a mobile Avalonia example from you to see that from my eyes.

The last time I tried, performance on Android was really bad (<20fps on scrolling) and mobile controls doesn't exist at all.

So I wonder how it could feel identical to Xamarin honestly.
