Except Windows developers, since Windows 8 WinRT, Windows 10 UWP, Project Reunion, WinUI 3.0/WinAppSDK, killing .NET Native and C++/CX, while their business units put Web widgets everywhere, mess.

Electron is here.

For better or worse most developers aren't developing true native apps anymore.

That doesn't take away from what Microsoft has done for open source lately.

That is what Web apps are for, no need to ship Chrome alongside each application.

Everyone shipping Electron is helping Google to turn the Web into ChromeOS.

Not like they are being sued for stealing code at this very moment. They are just so good to developers/s.

Other than all the game devs they just laid off.

Good news is they can’t lay off any members of the Rust Foundation.
