Is MoonlightDesktop suitable for porting wpf app to Linux?

Question

I understand Moonlight is no longer supported by Xamarin, but I have a WPF application written on Windows that I would like to port to Linux. I want to avoid rewriting the UI code. I came across a Xamarin project called MoonlightDesktop (http://www.mono-project.com/MoonlightDesktop) looks like what I need, but there's little discussion about it. Can I use this to port my app, if so, why has Xamarin not pushing it as one of their recommended cross platform UI libraries?

Answer 1

Moonlight is dead. So unfortunately this doesn't sound like a direction to take.

I don't know of any other cross-platform WPF-compatible toolkits either.

Answer 2

It appears that it can be done as described in this post:
