Thank you for taking the time to respond. Quickly looking over the link brings up even more questions. Appears my weak general knowledge will keep this just a hobby.

Agreed. VB wasn't perfect for ~everything~ but it was Rapid Application Development at its best. The massive simplification of otherwise gangly code with all of it's built in functions is what made it so friggin' popular. VB6 was the most used programming language on the planet when MS pulled the plug and VB.NET was in the top 3 when MS just started drifting away from supporting it. Amazing how you can have a product so popular and just chuck it...twice. Dumping the language like that is what makes me not trust investing time learning and collecting code for anything proprietary to MS. No customer loyalty.

No, you have to do the layout calculations yourself. And TBH if GUI applications are your main focus then I would suggest you stick to .NET with C# or VB.NET.

Nope, we decided that it was not worth the effort to make it work. Maybe we'll look at it in the future. CI/CD = Continuous Impediment/Continuous Despair

And just in case anyone else is as blinkered as you, OriginalGriff's post (and my response) are here: [The Lounge](https://www.codeproject.com/Lounge.aspx?msg=5873873#xx5873873xx) So people, if by any small chance you're bothered about any of this, you can judge for yourselves.

It is template metaprogramming, but a particular technique involving it, and unfortunately I can't use most of the pre-fab stuff because the STL is barely available on the platforms i target. To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

Luckily fat developers are still in demand or I'd be homeless :~ In my part of the world less than half of the job descriptions fit your description and they are underpaid and overcrowded. As of today the highest required jobs here are embedded development (no finger needed as interaction with the end user is minimal if present) and data science.
