Surprised they're bringing WinForms into it but I suppose there's a lot of it about.
I've been watching this for a while. I'm currently involved in a project that is investigating a cross platform desktop UI. Unfortunately, WinForms and WPF are still only available on the Windows platform even in .NET CORE 3.

Tracy,
.NET 3 will only be released officially Sep/Oct this year, so there are still a lot that needs to be implemented. However, .NET 5 or Core as it will be referred to should have all of the "Win" available as multi-platform classes.

Hi Stephen,
The question was already addressed on the X# forums and although all the interfaces are not ready yet, here is a video that Robert posted to show that X# does actually support .NET Core already for WinForms/WFP.
Robert also stated that there should not be any problem as the X# compiler/runtime does not use any non-core interfaces except if there are some they not aware of, but would quickly be implemented/fixed. Keep in mind that even c# does not yet have a "visual studio" interface to WinForms/WPF.
