Windows App SDK (formerly known as Project Reunion)[1] is a software development kit (SDK) from Microsoft that targets the development of native desktop apps on Windows 11 and Windows 10 back to version 1809.
It is not a replacement for the Windows SDK or other types of Windows desktop apps such as .NET-based WPF and WinForms or native Win32. It acts as a complement to these types of desktop apps by providing a common API set across such platforms in an attempt to unify the newer UWP/WinRT and the older Win32 platforms APIs.[2][3]
Components include:[4]
- WinUI 3
- Windows Runtime language bindings:
- MSIX SDK
