Is .NET a viable platform for cross-platform data analysis and visualization tool development now? Python is king here, it sure has everything, but I'm tired of its non-type-safety.

From what experience I've had, C# is a very ergonomic language, with good balance between an expressive static type system and do-whatever-when-needed dynamic features.

Another language I'm looking at is TypeScript, since everything's in browser anyway, and browsers got fast.

Guess I just like Anders Hejlsberg.

This for for sure not. They do not have capable multi-platform UI.
