Not really. .NET Framework is mostly in bug fix mode but .NET is moving 
right along. As I said, MS managed to confuse things nicely. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET

It fits in nicely with the Linux move.  'dotnet build --arch linux-x64' 
will build a Linux package on Windows. Or you could target Windows on a 
Linux box. Or arm64 from either.

 The weakness on Linux is creating GUIs. I don't know what shape the GTK# 
project is in. There were QTSharp and wx.net (wxWidgets) projects too. 

Avalonia might work.  It follows the WPF xaml format. I've never played 
with it.
