LibreAutomate - windows macros in C#

[MBaas]

I tried many macro solutions (including AHK), but never was satisfied. Until I found QuickMacros whose author then started a new project "LibreAutomate" that I'be been using even with version <1.
I am still dabbling in C# but fortunately the author is super-responsive (almost feels like here!).
Today I was able (with that aforementioned help) to get remote control working, so I can call XY from LA - so I thought I should share the info there and here - maybe someone else finds it useful...

Is there a reason why this should be preferred (over AHK / AutoIT)?

I compiled a few small examples with it (requires an installed .NET 8.0 SDK to be able to do that), didn't run into major problems (and yeah, the linter in the GUI is nice). But I still don't know why I should learn C# if I don't need it for anything else

Maybe for those who don't know the AHK / AutoIT language (yet)?

It might be easier for those that know C# already (or hesitate to get into AHK / AutoIT).
I can't comment on benefits over AHK because I gave up AHK before I had a chance to gain "real experience"...

One migrant referred to AHK's "awful" syntax as the reason for switching.

also have a look here

AHK's syntax wasn't perfect but that changed for good with v2

Hm, while better syntax over awful AHK's one sounds pretty interesting, requirement of "ever hungry for resources b*tch" .Net kills the sole purpose of light-small automatization/scripting tool. Still thank you for sharing, adds hope an alternative may really come.
