Comment on Ask HN: Alternative to Go

Comments

C# is a more mature and complete language than go. And always will be.

Microsoft also appears to be working towards support for gui support for macOS and linux.

there’s already Avalonia UI. (with FuncUI it also works great with F#)

Is the cross compiling flow of C# as transparent as GO?

We hired another engineer so I haven't done any work with C# in the last couple of years. But maybe 5-7 years ago compiled a Windows Forms application with Xamarin under Linux and it worked with a couple of fixes.

I suspect that given that it's Microsoft if it works it'll just work.

consider F#. It’s a joy
