We’ve been developing our cross-platform UI library for .NET for over three years, and we’re excited to now preview AlterNET Studio X—our cross-platform solution for scripting and code editing.
Code editor to run on macOS, Linux, IOS and Android
Initially, the Code Editor will be available for macOS and Linux, using the AlterNET UI library.
Code Editor - Windows
Code Editor - macOs
Code Editor - Linux
While our main focus is on cross-platform desktop applications, since AlterNET UI also supports MAUI, the Code Editor will also be compatible with iOS and Android devices.

Cross-platform .NET and Python script debugging
Our debugging engines for .NET and Python have been upgraded to run on macOS and Linux. The debugging user interface, including controls for breakpoints, call stack, watches, as well as the debug toolbar and menus, will be built using AlterNET UI and MAUI.

Changes to our component libraries
Most of our component libraries will support .NET Standard 2.0 for cross-platform development. To enable this, we will need to refactor parts of our codebase, including moving WPF/WinForms-related functionality into separate assemblies.
All of our component libraries will be compatible with .NET 9
Price inrcease and new product tier
We also anticipate a price increase for the AlterNET Studio Universal edition, which will include cross-platform libraries. Additionally, we plan to introduce a new product tier for Windows-only developers.
