And presumably C# is just binding to some native toolkit
3 comments

There is no native toolkit on Linux, at least not in the sense that there is on macOS or windows.
Yea but linux doesn't have a toolkit at all, in that sense, and suffers deeply for it. Imho
If I had to simply bind to a native toolkit, I think Lazrus can do that. Having loved Delphi back in the day, I think I'd prefer to write ObjectPascal for anything more than a very simple utility. C# would likely be my second choice.
Yes, but C# is very nice as a language for GUI, can't explain it, just feels right.
Unfortunately, that's a mostly-windows thing. I can't say i've ever used such an experience myself.
