This repository contains ready-to-use win32 app.
Obviously, you can just copy/paste a directory and go from there but it will require some work that is avoided when using the PowerShell script.
To create a working project, use:
Templates\Template.Cpp.WindowsApp\scripts\New-WinAppFromTemplateGUI.ps1
or
Templates\Template.Cpp.WindowsApp\scripts\Create-ProjectFromTemplate.exe
