What each one is

The product in its own terms, so the numbers below have context.

Avalonia UI

An open-source, MIT-licensed framework that allows developers to build applications for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and WebAssembly using shared C# and XAML code. It renders custom user interfaces consistently across all target platforms by implementing its own UI drawing rather than relying on platform-native controls.

Independently observed

Flutter

Leader

An open-source framework that compiles applications to native machine code for mobile and desktop platforms, and to JavaScript for web, enabling developers to create apps for multiple platforms using a single Dart codebase.
