wow, I did not expect them to do this after reading issues that they couldn't work with the Windows API for some reason since it didin't have a C++ API.
You can use WRL or C++/WinRT (current recommended way) to access the WinRT API from C++.
The problem isn't so much the language as the fact that it's very tedious if you only have access to the old Win32 API as a result of toolchain constraints. It is much easier with the VCpp toolchain.
