February Monthly Meeting

Client side apps – Xamarin desktop and mobile

Come for a discussion about the state of making client-side apps. We’ll discuss options of Xamarin, UWP, WPF, WinForms, PWAs, and others. You’ll walk away understanding the goals, support, and roadmap for these technologies. This will help you in making decisions about which technology to use for your next app or migrating your existing app.
