# The C++ Windows SDK projection C++/Win32 (cppwin32) is a standard C++ language projection for Windows SDK APIs. True, the Windows SDK already releases headers that can be consumed from C++, but those headers have some severe historical and compatiblity constraints that hamper C++ developers that wish to enjoy modern language features. Goals include: - Better compliance with C++ standards, particularly C++17 and newer. - Eliminating the use of macros for constants, enumerations, and functions, and instead using C++ language constructs that participate in the type system and respect scope. - Paving the way towards a Windows SDK that can be used with C++ modules. Another goal under investigation and discussion is to converge this projection with the [C++/WinRT projection](https://github.com/microsoft/cppwinrt/). ## How it works This projection is similar to [C++/WinRT](https://github.com/microsoft/cppwinrt/) in that it generates projection header files from metadata. Instead of using Windows Runtime metadata, it uses metadata produced by the [Win32 Metadata Project](https://github.com/microsoft/win32metadata/). This project is still in the early stages and will continue to grow and evolve. Watch for a Nuget package soon. ## Contributing This project welcomes contributions and suggestions.
