I think it is really complex. I am thinking about writing a Winform application or use a framework for the runtime environment Node.js for example Vue.

It's a really tuff choice, because I have never programmed with Node.js. So eventually I have no idea at all and I need to make a descision in one week so really stressfull.
Right now I have the following conclusion with the search of information on the internet.

.net core makes it easier to maintain and fix bugs. The readability of the code has also been changed. This allows faster development and faster learning, which means less time to achieve the end result. On the other hand multi-threading is also a if then Node.js is again better for performance. The language is chosen according to the project requirement.
Reliability is more in the case of Asp.net compared to node.js due to generic error handling, in this case it beats node.js.

One main problem I have now is that Node.js is a runtime enviroment. It brings more possibility's for the future in case a company would invest in android, cause it can run in any Browser. With Windforms I depend on Windows, Linux, MacOS. Maybe you know if there is a solution for WindForms on an android phone?

How do you think about this. I guess I did a good job with arguments, but I am just a student and not yet an IT specialist so it would be really interesting to have a perspective with more knowledge about technoligy. I am also sorry for my English. I am a dutch student.
