*:::That said, @[[User:WikiAviator|WikiAviator]] have you tried [[w:WP:JWB|JWB]], as Fastily mentions below? That is a web-based version that I think would be much easier for us to contribute to (if the maintainer is open to outside contributions).

*::::I've tried it lately and it has problems making lists (can't make list for new pages), but the foundation is solid (it works smoothly overall). I think we can collaborate with the maintainer so we can revamp and publicly release it as official commtech (like Huggle and AWB). I agree that the web version would be easier for us compared to the Windows version (running discontinued IE). If JWB is stable enough, we can abandon AWB altogether.

*::::The core of .NET 5 is open-source and cross-platform, but this doesn’t mean everything built on this core is as well. Windows Forms, used by AWB, [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/desktop/winforms/migration/?view=netdesktop-5.0 is still Windows-only in .NET 5]. Although it’s possible in theory to get current AWB work on Linux (with [[w:Mono (software)|Mono]] and some other additional software), I haven’t been able to do so yet. [[w:GTK Sharp|GTK#]] is an open-source GUI alternative, but it looks like a dead project at a glance. As far as I understand, [[w:.NET MAUI|.NET MAUI]] is truly cross-platform and under heavy development, but this heavy development means that its general availability is planned in a year, so while porting AWB to it may be the way to go, it probably won’t happen in 2021. —[[User:Tacsipacsi|Tacsipacsi]] ([[User talk:Tacsipacsi|talk]]) 00:24, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
*There is a browser based version of AWB: [[w:User:Joeytje50/JWB]] -[[User talk:Fastily|<span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:Indigo;font-weight:bold;"><span style="font-size:120%;">F</span><span style="font-size:90%;">ASTILY</span></span>]] 05:11, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

* There is a Phabricator task for that. [[User:1234qwer1234qwer4|𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰]] ([[User talk:1234qwer1234qwer4|𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠]]) 22:21, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
