Desktop Apps

It's x86, x64 on PC's for me. But I'm just a simple guy.

The point was, as a VS "desktop" developer, you can target all those devices with one code base. The VS "package builder" handles the rest.

I'm rewriting an winforms app I wrote several years ago in wpf. I've not been able to devote a lot of time to it though.

Sure, most of my projects are desktop applications and that is not because I choose it, but because it is required from the clients. It's a long way from being dead

I (mostly) only do desktop apps. Without them, how else would one do web apps?

The funny thing is I did nothing at all! :O I sent 2 job applications, changed my mind.. (there was some miscommunication at work and, well, I really shouldn't have left but it was unclear at the time), then a HR call me with an opportunity (not the one I applied for, I think) and I was like mm... not really interested but sure tell me about it.. and then she said EA Game in Melbourne, for the Frostbite team is looking for a WPF developer.. and I was like... really, sign me in! :O Apparently they are on a hiring spree right at the moment.. and also had trouble finding anyone with WPF experience, lucky me I guess...! :D

I do both desktop and web apps. In fact, I'm still doing active development on the first desktop lob app I was hired as a part-time college student to help with in '99. :) My ratio of desktop to web app development has gradually shifted over the last 10 years or so toward most new projects being browser based. Personally, I prefer desktop apps due to the stateless and sometimes unpredictable nature of the web. BTW, many moons ago, I lived/worked on the north shore in Mandeville. :) Great times! :laugh:

Rarely, I write mostly back-end code and other applications with no users. But a few utility programs as well.

All day every day. Well most of the day most days, there's a few 'web' back ends around now as well as some Windows Services etc. But most of our software is WinForms. Struggling with what tech to migrate to though - need something that targets desktop as first class, but also want it to be both cross platform and cross-form factor (desktop to mobile and back agai etc) as well as play more nicely with touch. I guess what UWP tried to be, but failed. Now we're considering... react and the web *shudder*. Sigh.

Good luck dude. I am struggling through my first website now, and I pretty much hate it. I am using DevEX tools and that helps, somewhat.
