Kinda. can you upload this to nuget?

Describe the solution you'd like
Upload as .net 5 nuget package

Describe alternatives you've considered
I have considered Eto.Forms but its too complicated.

Additional Information
Please separate stable and unstable releases

Yes, I will be redoing most of this repository, and have a ship date planned for Next Friday, (11/26).

Current plans related to this issue are:

• multiple target frameworks (.net 5 and .net 6)
• separate nuget feeds (Nuget.com for stable, MyGet for prereleases, and Azure DevOps for builds per-commit.

I will start working on this tonight. I apologize for not doing this already, as I have been quite busy with personal matters.

No Its ok. I just was looking everywhere for a good native cross platform GUI.
Microsoft has yet to provide a good ui library in that matter.

Btw are there any plans on allowing basic drawing and audio?

[simplexidev]

The real plan for this project is to use it as a separate repository to get a half-decent API for libui before it goes into a project, that has yet to actually have a set name yet, allowing for UI, Audio (via miniaudio), and Drawing (maybe opengl, maybe not), and then some. More information about that will come in the future, though.

I don't know how OpenGL could draw on controls, maybe it would use different graphics behind the scenes?
I would recommend veldrid if you want drawing on mac.

[simplexidev]

Let me think on it tonight while I get the repo (and CI) fixed up for .NET 6.

By the morning, there will be a separate issue pertaining to audio and graphics, respectively. Once work begins on those issues, the repo will get a rename (which I'll open an issue for suggestions when the time comes).

P.S. Thanks for showing interest in this project, as I may have completely forgotten about it and realized it needs a major face lift. :)

I would contribute but I have yet to even make a asteroids clone in C# with a game engine so I think I am pretty unsuited for contribution.

Also I always mess up git when I use it DX.

[simplexidev]

Honestly, my only background in UI of any kind before this project, was WinForms. Graphics is gonna be a fun one.

And as for the git mess ups, have you tried a UI for it like GitKraken? I use it as a daily driver, and it does anything I've ever needed to do with git.

[Shadowblitz16]

I have not no I usually use the terminal or built in gui within my ide.

[simplexidev]

#39 should build as-is, for .NET 6. No promises or warranties, though!

New commits will change that in a few moments...

[simplexidev]

Depends on #28

[simplexidev]

I have most of the work done for this locally, but GitHub has disabled my account's package feed, so once they get back to me, the first CI builds should be available on GitHub through my account's NuGet feed.

I'd like to correct that last comment, as I used MyGet instead. You can look for the packages, but keep in mind the only usable one will be LibUISharp.Core, as I have not uploaded the binaries for the libui, miniaudio, or zstd.

EDIT: There are actually packages uploaded now, it's just they are 100% use at your own risk. They haven't been tested, like at all since I started work on #39, so fair warning!
