Windows Design

Category: General · Sub-category: general-misc · Last updated: 2026-05-08

Build Windows 11/12 desktop apps across all four common stacks — system-like WinUI 3, branded WinUI 3 (Fluent + custom identity), Tauri 2 (small bespoke web), and Electron (heavy bespoke web). Use when the user asks for a Windows app, Win11 UI, XAML, Fluent design, WinUI, WPF, PowerToys-style tool, Microsoft Store app, music/photo/creative app, or any desktop deliverable on Windows. ALWAYS ask the user which track first — do not default. SKIP when the user explicitly wants only Apple, Android, or web-in-browser.

From the source SKILL.md

Windows desktop has four distinct tracks. Each has different visual ceilings, different cost. Ask the user which one before any code. Do not default.
