Best way to do Mac and Windows cross develoment?

2 points by lupatus 15y ago ↗ HN

I am about to start a new project for a desktop GUI program, and am curious about what the best method for doing cross-development on Windows and Macs is these days. Do .NET apps run on Macs; should I turn to Java; is there something better out there these days? (Before you ask, making it be web-based is not an option.)

I'd recommend the Qt framework. It makes writing C++ much less painful and you can style the interface via CSS. The Qt Creator IDE nice and you can use Xcode or Visual Studio. It also has a helpful and knowledgeable community.

Thanks. I'll check out Qt.
