One can only hope.

C++/WinRT is in maintenance, and you will notice the WinUI 3.0 does most of their demos, and gallery with C#.

In terms of XAML UI, C++/WinRT struggles. When it was released, C++ just lacked good reflection methods, and many practices that were easily achieved in C#, such as MVVM, data bindings, were difficult to migrate. I think this prevented C++ from re-entering modern Windows development practices.

It would be nice if any display API actually covered the entire API with the exception of the actual OS API…
