Just shipped WinUIEx 2.6.0. This one includes a workaround for that ugly WinUI memory leak and some deprecations, now that WinAppSDK 1.7 have some alternative APIs. Also a simple property to add your app to the tray icons www.nuget.org/packages/Win...

This one took the longest. It doesn't help that people keep buying the outdated first edition. I feel bad that it's still out there because there's so much in there that's based on the pre-1.0 WInAppSDK bits.

If you're not using WinUIEx in your WinAppSDK app you're doing something wrong! It is an amazing package and essential for any serious app.

Well it's now using WinAppSDK so it moved away from UWP indeed. First inbuild app the make the migration. Interesting. #Windowsinsiders https://t.co/U2pBiQZM2p https://t.co/BVXRqVWT4J

Who else loves that the WinAppSDK grew 30% in size (well over 100mb now) just to add AI apis that will only run on copilot PCs? They really need to start splitting this package up into smaller packages
