Do you ever wonder why EVEN Microsoft uses web technologies to build apps for Windows?

Because the StAte oF tHe aRt piece of shit WINUI 3 (aka Project Reunion aka Windows App SDK aka Microsoft 12th app framework in this decade) can't handle a basic save/open dialog.

An issue has been opened 2 fucking years ago and still no fix. (Other than write 250 lines of c# and c++ to get a fucking dialog)

Fuck this I'm going back to Electron.

    They'll have their apps run on Linux if they ever decide to google Windows.

    Yes I do. I guess I couldn’t handle the truth.

    Remember the days when a copy of Petzold was the only reference you needed and SO was just a dystopian nightmare?

    Halcyon days.

    It's an embarrassment that a huge company like Microsoft can't provide a decent tool for developers to make native app on their OS. They themselves ended up using Electron to make VS Code and MS Teams.
