The original complaint was mostly around layout patterns. I'm not super familiar with XAML, but "offloading that all into writing custom C# code to lay things out at pixel locations" certainly doesn't sound like a great dev experience, and definitely doesn't sound very responsive. Does XAML have anything comparable to flexbox/grid for building responsive layouts?

There're two kinds of them. On the web it means arranging stuff to only have vertical scrolling but not horizontal. On desktop you often don't want any scrolling, no amount of auto-wrapping is going to do that regardless on the GUI framework.
