Microsoft has transitioned WinUI's mainline development to GitHub, making the development process transparent with public PR review and merging by Microsoft developers, but external pull requests are not accepted yet pending further announcements.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Enterprise Software.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Microsoft now develops WinUI transparently on GitHub but keeps external PRs closed for testing. You can track feature progress more closely and prepare for future contributions once PRs open.
