This repo contains driver samples prepared for use with Microsoft Visual Studio and the Windows Driver Kit (WDK). It contains both Universal Windows Driver and desktop-only driver samples.
With the WDK now supporting Nuget packages for ease of install it is beneficial to have the CI pipeline also utilize this ability. This will allow easier and faster integration when new WDK versions are published without relying on the runner images to be updated.
Adds Nuget package capability to the CI pipeline.
Adds installation of WDK vsix directly into the CI pipeline.
Updates environment variables for ease of incrementing component versions.
