This is not to be confused with the Avalonia UI framework which remains free and open source.

XPF is a new project by the same team that allows existing WPF apps to be cross-platform (so enterprises can take their existing Windows-only apps and run them on MacOS, Linux and maybe WebAssembly). It's in early stages so I don't know how well it works.
