What is the state of F# a replacement for C# to create GUI apps on Windows? Are there companies using F# for this purpose?


There are a few options:

https://github.com/fsprojects/Avalonia.FuncUI

https://fabulous.dev/ (which targets Avalonia/MAUI/Xamarin)

https://github.com/kekyo/epoxy (Avalonia and WPF)

> Are there companies using F# for this purpose?

I can ask around if you're interested.


I'm in this world, few companies are doing GUI apps at all these days. Most have long converted to Web Apps.

Since it's pretty tiny minority of .Net users use F#, I'm sure someone somewhere is using F# for GUI but it's going to be tiny shop somewhere.


Appreciate it, thanks!
