Support creating WinGet Configuration files #458

Open denelon opened 9 months ago

denelon commented 9 months ago

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?

Do you want to configure the package?

Do you want to add a Windows Setting?

We could follow the "Tools" directory convention used at winget-pkgs to place the PowerShell script while we iterate.
