Evaluate modern alternatives to MFC, not limited to C++ #36

Open ffhacksterex opened 2 years ago

MFC got its last feature update in 2008, and was not built for compatibility with modern C++ (11 forward). To support cross platform development, we should move to another toolset. The desire is to keep the tool relatively small. Staying in C++, wxWidgets comes to mind as a modern alternative that can be ported from MFC. Leaving C++, something like Sciter allows HTML and JS development on the desktop without the disk and RAM costs of Electron.

@essellejaye Just want to include it here, we spoke offline about the possibility of a port to AvaloniaUI. But that was a port of the original FFH. Would you consider porting this instead?
