Is it possible to make desktop GUI application in .NET Core?

Question

I have been developing Windows Forms programs for few years. I am now looking into .NET Core (including ASP.NET Core MVC). I am searching for the new GUI desktop technology.

For creating a console-based UI, you can use gui.cs. It is open-source (from Miguel de Icaza, creator of Xamarin), and runs on .NET Core on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

It has the following components:

• Buttons
• Labels
• Text entry
• Text view
• Time editing field
• Radio buttons
• Checkboxes
• Dialog boxes
  • Message boxes
• Windows
• Menus
• ListViews
• Frames
• ProgressBars
• Scroll views and Scrollbars
• Hexadecimal viewer/editor (HexView)
