Silverlight was good for it's time but nowadays I would rather code in whatever popular JS/HTML framework - the live reload beats any C# flow hands down in iteration time and the fact that I can just reverse proxy my local dev env while working on something to a designer speeds up design tweaks a bunch.

Or just use OpenSilver, thanks WebAssembly.

That sounds like it would make the development iteration even more terrible than it was - WASM builds were slooow last time I tried it - with webpack in HMR mode or flutter you get instant feedback - this is probably the biggest productivity boost in UI development - I've yet to see anything from .NET offer similar performance, I suspect it would be challenging due to the static nature of IL.
