GUI to upload *.bin-files in only four steps board, comport, file, upload - done

i did google for it and found some hits how to upload *.bin-files (= compiled sketches) to the Arduino or in special ESP8266 and ESP32 using avrdude.

My question is: does there exist an alternative to avrdude upload-tool with a GUI that works like this:

1: choose board-type (as the bindary is already board-specific maybe this step might be left out)
2: choose com-port
3: choose file through the standard "open-file"-dialog
4: click on button upload

and you are done.

If you code-geeks and code-nerds love to use command-line-tools just do it.
Me personal I prefer simple to use GUI-software.

best regards Stefan

P.S: I had this thread in the AVRdude section. But it had only a few views and zero responses. And my question is about an alternative for avrdude so my argument is it is not avrdude-related problem. So i completely deleted the text there.
so there is no cross-posting. This means there are no artefacts that make no more sense after deleting the initial posts because there were no answers.

For the Microchip (nee Atmel) SAM family of microcontrollers (e.g., MKR, Zero, Nano 33 IoT, Due, 3rd party SAMD boards, etc.), you can use BOSSA:

The command line version of this tool, bossac is used for uploads to all those boards, It's also used for uploads to the Nano 33 BLE boards. The microcontroller of that board is not of the SAM family. I know Arduino uses a modified version of BOSSA, so it might be necessary to use that one instead of the upstream version I linked above:
