.Net Core about elite-log-agent

Just an FYI, I've prototyped a cross platform gui by replacing winforms with avalonia.

Greetings. I've given the migration a go and it doesn't actually cause issues - but unfortunately ClickOnce which I'm using for distribution is not supported with .NET Core. This is the main blocker right now - I don't have a good alternative for it and I don't want to roll out homegrown one. Squirrel, for example, does not support .NET Core 3.0 (which is required to support WinForms) :(

Any suggestion for an easy-to-use framework are appreciated

What are your thoughts on just upgrading the libraries to .net standard and leaving the winforms app as full framework?

Unfortunately, I'm not sure of any deployment frameworks besides Squirrel and MSIX. MSIX doesn't look nearly as friendly as Squirrel. And I assume Squirrel's option for using Update.exe doesn't interest you (I've never actually used either so I'm not familiar with the pros and cons).

sorry i am currently not doing any programming, and i am a bit out of date. I'm going to ask people at work if they use these tools, and I'll inform you if they tell me something interesting.

ClickOnce shouldn't be a deal breaker anymore, see: dotnet/deployment-tools#9

Nice, will take a look when I have spare time

It seems I will have to drop "Portable" version support for it - which I should do anyway, as nobody bothers to update those
