Overview of Template Studio for WinUI
Template Studio for WinUI is an open source extension for Visual Studio that enhances the experience of creating a new WinUI 3 project. Microsoft currently has three versions of the Template Studio extension available:
- Template Studio for WinUI (C#) – This is the extension we will use in this chapter. There are also plans for a C++ version of Template Studio for WinUI.
- Template Studio for WPF – The WPF version of Template Studio is similar to the WinUI extension. It creates a .NET WPF project.
- Template Studio for UWP – This version is the updated extension that was originally named Windows Template Studio.
The code and documentation for the Template Studio projects are available on GitHub: https://github.com/microsoft/TemplateStudio. The team also maintains a release roadmap on GitHub that you can monitor: https://github.com/microsoft/TemplateStudio/blob/main/docs/roadmap.md.
