Description
I attempted to rewrite my production WPF application to MAUI to get a taste of whats to come, since I have plans publish the application to macOS. Sadly, the takeaway from my experience was that MAUI is not the correct framework for me; the lack of desktop-class controls, such as DataGrid, GridView, context menus, etc. was a deal-breaker.
From what I can tell, MAUI will not bring any such desktop-like controls. Therefore, it seems that MAUI is a mobile UI framework, which happens to run on desktop :/
My question is: are there plans to add desktop-esc controls, such as DataGrid? Is writing desktop-only or desktop-first applications even a supported use case?
Is Blazor Desktop the project which I should focus my attention to instead? I know HTML5 has all the controls I need. If so, this is confusing, since, from what I recall, Microsoft itself said that Blazor Desktop is a mobile-first framework. Maybe Avalonia instead?
