What is WinUI?

The Windows UI Library (WinUI) is a native framework aimed at improving user experiences (UX) for desktop applications as well as those built on the Universal Windows Platform (UWP). By incorporating the Fluent Design System into all aspects, from controls to visual elements, WinUI guarantees that applications provide a harmonious, user-friendly, and accessible interface that aligns with modern design trends. It supports the creation of both brand new applications and the upgrading of existing ones, enabling developers to start fresh or effortlessly adapt their current MFC, WinForms, or WPF applications using familiar programming languages like C++, C#, Visual Basic, and JavaScript (via React Native for Windows). This adaptability allows developers to apply contemporary design principles without straying from their established coding methods. Consequently, WinUI not only streamlines the development workflow but also significantly enhances user interaction with the applications, fostering a more engaging and satisfying experience. As a result, users are likely to appreciate the thoughtful design and seamless functionality that WinUI brings to their everyday applications.
