I understand Moonlight is no longer supported by Xamarin, but I have a WPF application written on Windows that I would like to port to Linux. I want to avoid rewriting the UI code. I came across a Xamarin project called MoonlightDesktop (http://www.mono-project.com/MoonlightDesktop) looks like what I need, but there's little discussion about it. Can I use this to port my app, if so, why has Xamarin not pushing it as one of their recommended cross platform UI libraries?
Is MoonlightDesktop suitable for porting wpf app to Linux?

It appears that it can be done as described in this post:

Moonlight is dead. So unfortunately this doesn't sound like a direction to take.
I don't know of any other cross-platform WPF-compatible toolkits either.
