Microsoft announced plans to make WinUI, their modern Windows UI framework, fully open source after years of developer frustration over slow progress and bugs. The transition will happen in four phases, starting with more frequent code mirroring to GitHub and eventually making it the primary repository. However, the timeline remains unclear due to dependencies on proprietary Windows components. Developers remain skeptical about Microsoft's commitment, citing years of stagnation and questioning whether sufficient resources will be allocated to improve the framework.
