Electron.NET lets .NET developers build cross-platform desktop applications using Electron, hosting ASP.NET Core (Razor Pages, MVC) or Blazor UIs, or lightweight console apps. It wraps Electron's APIs in C# NuGet packages while preserving full API compatibility.

Use cases

  • build cross-platform desktop apps with asp.net core
  • wrap a blazor app as a native desktop application
  • convert a .net web app into an electron desktop app
  • use electron apis from c#
  • package a razor pages mvc app for windows mac and linux
  • build a lightweight desktop app without a local web server

When to choose

  • your team knows .NET and wants Electron-style desktop apps without writing JavaScript
  • you have an existing ASP.NET Core or Blazor app to turn into a desktop app
  • you need cross-platform desktop distribution from a single C# codebase

When to avoid

  • you want the smallest possible desktop app bundle - Electron ships Chromium and Node
  • you need deep native platform integration beyond what Electron's API surface offers
  • you prefer a pure JavaScript/TypeScript Electron workflow
