Thanks a lot for the good work. Came right in time. Never finding anything fast in XOA.

Hello Everyone!
Thought I'd get peoples views on this. Since XCP-ng Center is Windows only and basically stuck on .NET Framework 4.8, I am considering switching the UI over to Avalonia, rewriting the whole UI for that change, and upgrade to .NET 8.0. This will also allow Linux users to use XCP-ng Center as well.

@michael-manley Speaking as a recent Linux desktop convert, I approve
-
I still keep a Windows 10 VM just to be able to run XCP-NG Center.
Despite XOA is a great powerfull tool to perform backups and warm migrations, XCP-NG Center
is much moreuser-friendly when you want to check more than one server at once.Having it on a Linux Desktop could be the most welcome improvement.
Thanks.

@michael-manley sounds like a plan.
-
@michael-manley Sounds fantastic! Should allow for GUI additions flexibility as well.
-
its a big task, but would be cool
-
@michael-manley You got my vote of approval. I'm also willing to test your releases (if you need that kinda help).
-
@michael-manley Great!!
In fact xenserver and xcp-ng without the desk application seems to me a bit like RouterOS without Winbox; we are so fond of them that we would be sorry not to see them anymore... they are twins in their own way (see the beta of winbox for linux).
Thanks Michael for the effort!

Thank you for taking it on. I'm coming from Xenserver using Xencenter for last 10 years and migrating stuff to XCP-ng. Any chance you could update it to allow to add XenServer servers. When I try to add it says This version is incompatible with XCP-ng Center. Thanks again.
