COM is supported in .NET Core so it will probably stay like that.
I am wondering how will they ship windows-specific features (WPF, WinForms, WCF) if at all, will it be with desktop packs? Or perhaps just included in the .NET 5 windows installer.
Questions like that are hanging in the air..
I personally hope .NET 5 will encourage / introduce a XAML cross platform powerful UI framework (Preferably WPF, or a new one?), that will be able to compete with the PWAs and Electron desktop "web" apps (that drain your memory usage).
I am sorry to quote so many articles, but this one from Scott Hunter is interesting:
After .NET Core 3.0 we will not port any more features from .NET Framework. If you are a Web Forms developer and want to build a new application on .NET Core, we would recommend Blazor which provides the closest programming model. If you are a remoting or WCF developer and want to build a new application on .NET Core, we would recommend either ASP.NET Core Web APIs or gRPC (Google RPC, which provides cross platform and cross programming language contract based RPCs). If you are a Windows Workflow developer there is an open source port of Workflow to .NET Core
Yes, everyone speculated for a long time about this, but this an official confirmation they are going to freeze development (besides bug fixes) on the .NET Framework. And with announcement of .NET 5 and WSL 2 clearly stating plans for the future :)
