Technology stack recommendation for a cross platform desktop client

Hi Indie Hackers,

I recently joined IH and have been enjoying it so far.. We have a product concept that we want to start building out. It will be a stand alone desktop application where the users will be building projects based on a drag and drop UI. I am comfortable with the .NET stack so was having WPF core as an option. However, considering that we might want to bring in more collaborators or freelancers or full time developers, I am looking for any recommendations if it will be good to start building with .NET or are there any other language preferences..

Thanks & Regards,

    Hey Sooraj19,

    I recently bootstrapped a cross platform desktop app using Electron. For me it worked well because it was basically developing a web app and i was able to use Vue. The built in updating functionality was a big time saver as well. However if you are familiar with something else and you're looking to build out a concept and there was some technology i'm comfortable with and i will do the job i would just stick with this.

    Good luck!
