Yep. I cut my teeth making custom .ocx components. That teenager was part of your dll hell!

VB.net is pretty good, but at that point I just used C#. I go back and make C# guis every now and then with winforms. It always makes me think “how is everything else including QT and WPF and CSS worse decades later?” ;)

And how about that experiment with Electron? That ultimately ended up with me typing `atom foo.py` a few times a month and then being sad (50% of the time because it takes forever to load, the other 50% because it died like 3 years ago and isn’t installed).
