Description of the new feature / enhancement

I'd like to be able to have tooling to support creating a WinGet Configuration.

We might start with a PowerShell script or something initially to work out the flow, and it could be part of the Microsoft.WinGet.Create module.

wingetcreate is all about manifests today, but it would be nice to have the ability to specify the creation of configuration files.

The tool would be able to iterate over some process like:

Do you want to add a package?

  • Get the ID & source

Do you want to configure the package?

  • If a DSC Resource is mapped in the source for the package, suggest that resource.
  • If a DSC Resource is not mapped, but one is identified a suggestion could include adding that to the manifest.

Do you want to add a Windows Setting?

  • Leverage Microsoft.Windows.Developer
