Doing some peer programming with @XAMLLlama porting more shaders to C# with ComputeSharp, this thing is addictive! Early experiments with input dependent, multipass shaders, in a WinUI 3 app. NuGet packages will also be available soon for both WinUI 3 and UWP! 🚀

TerraFX.Interop.Windows now has an RC1 release: nuget.org/packages/TerraFX.I…
It provides raw interop bindings for DirectX (D3D10, D3D11, D3D12, D2D1, DComp, DWrite, WIC, XAudio, etc), Win32, GDI, and more.
Basically as close as you can get to #include <Windows.h> in .NET

What if... you can find all the @DisneyPlus movies and TV shows in the @MicrosoftStore? Want to watch #BlackWindow? No need to rent or buy it if you already have Disney+. For us, a good store should be open, not a closed ecosystem, we hope you will enjoy!
