Windows 10: Windows Template Studio 1.3 Released

Brink · Sep 11, 2017

We’re extremely excited to announce the Windows Template Studio 1.3.

In this release, we added in app scheme launch, finalized our work for localization, massive improvements in accessibility and started our work for Visual Basic support.

What’s new:

For a full list of adjustments in the 1.3 release, head over to WTS’s Github.

New Feature:

Scheme to launch app (aka myAwesomeApp://myDeepLinksIntoMyApp?foo=bar)

Template improvements:

Default Windows theme support added to template

Files are now UTF-8 with BOM to make sure all cultures are supported

Accessibility support in templates

Improvements to the Wizard:

Accessibility support in Wizard drastically improved

Lots of under the hood bug fixes and code improvements

All needed parts for localization are built-in now (looks like we missed window to get actual localized files)

Initial VB engine work was added in.

Bug fixes

Process improvements:

StyleCop enforcements across Template and Wizard code bases

Appveyor added for pull requests to be sure we have proper continuous integration checks

Required work for .NET Foundation

How to get the update:

There are two paths to update to the newest build.

Already installed: Visual Studio should auto update the extension. To force an update, Go to Tools->Extensions and Updates. Then go to Update expander on the left and you should see Windows Template Studio in there. Click “Update.”

Not installed: Head to Windows Template Studio - Visual Studio Marketplace, click “download” and double click the VSIX installer.

What else is cooking for next versions?

We love all the community support and participation. In addition, here are just a few of the things we are currently building out that will be in future builds:

Fluent Design in the templates

Ink templates

Improved Right-click->add support for existing projects

Localization in the wizard

Visual Basic support

Micro support

Prism support

With partnership with the community, we will continue cranking out and iterating new features and functionality. We’re always looking for additional people to help out and if you’re interested, please head to our GitHub at Microsoft/WindowsTemplateStudio. If you have an idea or feature request, please make the request!

Windows Store template missing.

All I want to do is have the Windows Store category and template appear when i choose New Project but while I have the Visual Basic > Windows > Universal templates there are no Windows Store Templates! I am using Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition on Windows
10 (32bit).

So far I have:

Downloaded the SDK 10.0.14393.33

executed devenv.exe /installVSTemplates

Downloaded Visual Studio 2015 Express (Windows)

Still no Windows Store templates.

Why cant I get The Widows Store templates on Visual Studio!!!
