Avalonia is a cross-platform UI framework for dotnet, providing a flexible styling system and supporting a wide range of platforms such as Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android and WebAssembly. Avalonia is mature and production ready and is used by companies, including Schneider Electric, Unity, JetBrains and GitHub.
Considered by many to be the spiritual successor to WPF, Avalonia UI provides a familiar, modern development experience for XAML developers creating cross-platform applications. While Avalonia UI is similar to WPF, it isn't a 1:1 copy, and you'll find plenty of improvements.
For those seeking a cross-platform WPF, we have created Avalonia XPF, enabling WPF applications to run on macOS and Linux with little to no code changes. Avalonia XPF is a commercial product and is licensed per-app, per-platform.

🚀 Getting Started
See our Get Started guide to begin developing apps with Avalonia UI.
Visual Studio Code
The Avalonia for Code extension gives you everything you need to build cross-platform .NET apps. XAML previewing, code completion, diagnostics, and code navigation, all inside the world's most popular editor. It's the fastest way to get started with Avalonia.
Visual Studio 2022 & 2026
The Avalonia Visual Studio Extension contains project and control templates, a live XAML previewer, code completion, and full diagnostics directly into Visual Studio.
Code completion, inspections and refactorings are supported out of the box. To enable previewing XAML, you will require a 3rd party, community-maintained extension: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugins/dev/14839 to plugin repositories and install AvaloniaRider plugin.
We also have a nightly build which tracks the current state of master. Although these packages are less stable than the release on NuGet.org, you'll get all the latest features and bugfixes right away and many of our users actually prefer this feed!
