Blazor is cross-platform, in combo with MAUI.NET



I didn't downvote.

AFAIK it's not supporting Linux as a target platform. Correct me if I'm wrong.


.NET MAUI supported platforms:

* Android 5.0 (API 21) or higher is required.

* iOS 11 or higher is required

* macOS 10.15 or higher, using Mac Catalyst

* Windows 11 and Windows 10 version 1809 or higher

While Linux isn't supported, that is also not a typically significant market for GUI apps.

However Linux has a non-negligible share among platforms that developers use (as a daily driver). To me, as a Go developer, this library is dead on arrival. It would take extraordinary circumstances to consider it for an app (even in business setting).


For Linux, there are Avalonia, Uno Platform and Gir.Core (rich GObject and GTK4 bindings).

The point of MAUI is to be a successor to Xamarin, for which the primary target are mobile devices, by far the largest market niche.
