Windows.UI.StartScreen
Windows.Foundation.Uri

Windows.UI.Notifications

Prerequisites

See System Requirements for React Native for Windows development

Building and running the sample

Open an 'x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022' (or whichever version of Visual Studio you have installed)

Clone or download the react-native-winrt repository.

C:\> git clone https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-winrt.git
C:\> cd react-native-winrt

"Build" the local package by executing the script:

C:\react-native-winrt> scripts\build-npm-package.cmd

Change the working directory to this directory

C:\react-native-winrt> cd samples\RNWinRTTestApp

Run yarn install
```
C:\react-native-winrt\samples\RNWinRTTestApp> yarn install
```
NOTE: Because this project references local file contents for the react-native-winrt package, you must run yarn install as opposed to npm install, otherwise you may get build errors
If using the command line:
```
C:\react-native-winrt\samples\RNWinRTTestApp> npx react-native run-windows
```
If using Visual Studio:
- Open the solution file \windows\RNWinRTTestApp.sln in Visual Studio.
- Build the solution.
- If running Debug: run yarn start in the command prompt from this directory.
- F5 deploy the sample app (RNWinRTTestApp).

You will see something similar to below after successfully building and running the sample:
