[May 2022] Minor UI Improvements

Examples

How can I get this App?

There are three ways how you can get access to the app.

1. Microsoft Store

The simplest way is to just download it via the Microsoft Store.

2. Sideload

If you don't want to use the Microsoft Store for getting access to UWPX you can also sideload a pre build app.
For this head over to releases and download the latest UWPX-Installer.exe.
Once downloaded, double click it and then click on install.

For this to work you first have to enable Sideload app in your Windows settings! Click here for more information about this.

⚠️ Windows will try to warn you that this is a malicious installation program. This is because I did not sign it with a valid developer certificate - you can ignore it. ⚠️

3. Build it by your own

Short version

1. Install Visual Studio 2022
2. Clone the repository with Visual Studio 2022
3. Build the project for your target platform (e.g. x64)
