Yes it is possible... But there is no magic: you have to rewrite all the UI part. The only pieces you can keep are database, data access layer, business object layer.

Hi,

You might want to have a look at the below link.

Using Windows Application on web[^]

However, there is no magical tool or else to convert a windows app to a web app.
But you might try to abstract all your logic and stuffs.
Hope it helps.

Regards

Instead of converting the project, check this link that shows how to display it in the browser:

Five years too late, and no longer supported.
