I have an MVC Web application in .Net. I have the need to migrate it to the desktop. But I would like to keep my application with Web Views.
I know that for Android and IOS app it is possible to reuse the screens if they were developed in HTML5.
There is some way to keep my Web Views for the desktop platform.
Even though it is possible, I do not recommend developing a native application for Windows with Web Views only - this leads to a bad user experience.
Instead, if you want to let users use the application on your computer without internet access, I advise you to install the website on the user's local computer, and the user can access the site through localhost.
Instead of hosting the site in IIS, try using Nancy for self-hosting . So the end user does not need to have IIS installed.
As an example, I recently used Plex (to stream media). Plex installs a small server on your computer, and then you can manage the app through http://localhost:32400/web .
