Contributing to the Atlas Toolbox

This page will cover how to modify, test, and build Atlas. If you plan to contribute, we recommend reading the Contribution Guidelines first!

We presume you've already cloned the Atlas-OS/atlas-toolbox repository.

What Atlas uses internally

The AtlasOS Toolbox primarily uses the following two languages:

1. C# (.NET 8.0)
2. XAML

For development tools and resources, we recommend using:

• Visual Studio Community 2022
  • The Toolbox repo contains the default NuGet packages required.
• .Net 8 Runtime - Includeded in AtlasOS v0.5.0+
• Windows App SDK 1.6 - Includeded in AtlasOS v0.5.0+

For demos of UI elements used in the Toolbox, we recommend using:

• WinUI 3 Gallery
• Windows Community Toolkit Gallery
