There is not much with UI binding and what we have in Dotnet really good is windows centric. The rest: forget it for the next years until MS will get ready or again say: apps, we will move somewhere else. And exactly the could be happened. Only two with UI are C++ with WX and QT and Java with JavafX and Swing. The rest is: we try to or even html with Javascript where I can say: no Benchmark could deliver what Javascript promises. So: what can we do developing good reliable UI Software cross platform? QT and Java are the only ones except you want to land on GTK or other really hardcore looking platforms. But I am happy to know that I will find here hundreds which will say: yes this and this are the better alternatives. And I can say: no. Look what the entire industry is doing and what is real standard and not hoped base for UI dreams.
