I meant in the context of the GUI, then all data would be exchanged through the native bindings.

This is very cool. I hope one day someone creates a basic DOM for this with good CSS support and then we'd have the mini-electron. I hope that a very limited subset of the features of a browser (no downloads, tabs, networking, security contexts and everything else which would be irrelevant for desktop apps) can be implemented with few orders of magnitude less lines of code.

The funny thing is, many people there believe that Turkey is one of the most advanced economies. The propaganda machine is amazingly successful. The person you are replying to has access to all the information to see how wrong those arguments are, yet simply ignores everything. I said funny but I mean more like a tragicomedy.

That would not be allowed in Islam.

Could you please be more clear? I disabled all my extensions and still don't see anything there that is based on feelings?

Out of literally all the software vendors I know, including the one I'm working for, Mozilla is the one I'd have least expected to allow such a thing. I'm very surprised (Negatively, needless to say)

I think everything was beta-quality until 2.0 - so yeah it wasn't easy. Nowadays it's smooth sailing.

Custom CAs being ignored for the applications makes it a bit difficult so not trivial but possible by modifying the app.

This is the infamous "nothing to hide" argument in a different form.

I made a prototype using .NET Core MVC + Entity Framework + Npgsql + Autofac (Probably better IoC containers available out there but I'm used to Autofac open to suggestions btw).

It was very easy to develop, test and deploy. Npgsql has support for most of the postgres features (except complex types but that's planned).

I deployed everything on Ubuntu servers and runs like a champ. (I'm saying prototype and it is indeed, but it has 100-something users across the globe testing their workflows continuously and it has a lot of CPU-intensive stuff which is child's play with .NET to manage asynchronously. A production app would have two orders of magnitude more users but I think I'll be able to get away with a single server if it comes to that).

But you don't even use HTTPS. Why?

Here is one:

My point is, you can write any kind of app with almost any kind of server-side tech. If you don't like the culture, you may be right, but please be explicit about it.

I didn't say better. I said "more powerful" and I said that in terms of expressive power.

C#'s type system is usually better except from the times that I feel creative. Works perfectly for large codebases with many changes. Not fun for side-projects.

Couldn't agree more. And if you need to make it more concrete, Typescript gives you that and more. Well except the variadic generic types which they are planning to have.

I don't like node.js, but I occasionally use Typescript like a more powerful C#.
