Question

With what GUI framework is the Mono .NET Windows.Forms implemented?

Example: KDE, Gnome, X11 itself?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Mono does not use Qt (KDE) or GTK+ (GNOME) widgets because they don't match up with the Winforms API. Mono implements Winforms on top of their System.Drawing implementation, which in turn uses Cairo. Cairo deals with the native graphics implementation, such as X11 in Linux or Quartz in OS X.
