C++/WinRT Hello World

This is a quick start quide to prepare a development environment to develop against C++/WinRT.

System:
Development OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2
Target: Windows 10 LTSB build 10.0.14393
IDE: Visual Studio 2022 (used 17.4.4)

Install Visual Studio 2022 Universal Windows Platform development workload. The following is very _important_ as this is what will allow you to create C++/WinRT project. Check C++ (v143) Universal Windows Platform tools, doing so will also enable and install corresponding SDK.

Set back and relax as this will download ~24GB of data from Microsoft.

After installing Visual Studio, create Windows Console Application (C++/WinRT)

For the Minimum version, select Windows 10 Anniversary Update (10.0; Build 14393)

The template should look like below

If all is well, running it should look like below
