GUI for Mono port of .NET 4 application using WPF [closed]

Question

I've decided to port a little C# .NET application over to linux. It uses .NET 4, and the author (not me) decided to use WPF because he had performance issues with Winforms.

http://www.mono-project.com/Gui_Toolkits shows quite a lot of possible options for me to use, but I'm relatively new to C# and even more so to Mono. I need it to be fast, and preferably fairly lightweight.

What would you recommend and why?

I want to know which GUI kit to go with for performance and easy of porting, given that I'm new to Mono and the original .NET app uses WPF.

Answer 1

Go with Gtk#. It has a nice performance and monodevelop comes with a design tool to help you draw your interface.
