Write Apps That Run on Linux, macOS, Windows

published 2025-06-23

After more than 30 years of doing everyting on Windows (Win3.1, Win95, Win2000, WinXP, Vista and Win10) I finally migrated to Linux.

I started out simple in 2018 running Ubuntu. It's easy to install and mostly easy to install software on.

Most of the software I wanted to run was already there.

But, there were some things that I wanted, so I figured I'd try building them for myself.

One of the first things I wanted was a Task Manager that would make it easier to see what was running and allow me to kill a process if I had to.

Which Programming Language Is Cross-Platform

Should I use Python? No, I decided not to, because since I started out in C++ and migrated to C# (and many other C-like languages including Java, Kotlin, Swift & JavaScript) I just couldn't stand Python syntax.

Do You Know How Easy It Is To Use C# On All Platforms Now?

C# is actually quite amazing. I can run it on any Linux distro (Fedora, OpenMandriva, Manjaro, Ubuntu, the list goes on).
