1.0 Preview 1 Release of Windows App SDK

We've just released our first preview of the 1.0 release of the Windows App SDK! This preview is our first release that converges our NuGet packages to one single package, reducing clutter in your projects and making it easier to update to future versions! Additionally, the AppInstance APIs are now available to C# apps! And the MSAL Library finally works with WinUI 3 Desktop apps! This is an awesome opportunity to try out what's new and provide feedback.

If you're building an app with the Windows App SDK for the first time, follow the getting started instructions here.

Install the C# or C++ extensions for the 1.0 Preview 1 release.

Full release notes here.

To keep up with progress being made on the Windows App SDK, please see our feature roadmap, which gets updated regularly. __

The project template included in the linked Visual Studio extension is not compiling, also updating the packages in an existing app does not compile

Is there a specific documentation on how to use this version or a sample app?
