What is Windows Template Studio?

Windows Template Studio grew out of the free program, Windows App Studio.

Windows Template Studio (WTS) provides you with a wizard driven UWP app creator by brining togehther everything you need in terms of projects, frameworks, and features together in one place.

The wizard walks user through the following steps neceesary to create UWP apps:

Project Type: You can seelect standard layouts and predefiend controls
Framework: You can select the structure of your app. You have access to both in-house as well as 3rd party frameworks
App Pages: Choose type most appropriate for your use
App Features: easily add features such as background tasks etc.

WTS has gone Open Source. You can go that way, if you prefer.

WTS has goen through couple of updates and the latest version is Windows Template Studio 1.5 (also 1.6 is almost there).
